Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

YES, HE TRAVELLED 2 METRES EVERY 5 SECONDS

PROOF:

TOTAL RIDE TIME = 30 SECONDS

Length of elevator = 12 METRES

Distance moved per second can be calculated by = (length of elevator / total ride time)

( 12 METRES / 30 seconds) = 0.4 metres per second

Therefore, distance covered in 5 seconds :

0.4 × 5 = 2 metres.

Hence, the proof

He traveled 2 meters ever 5 seconds
