Answer:any speed greater than 4.22 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Length of substation =24.5 m

speed of escalator =2 m/s

Time to cross the escalator is 11 s

let v be the speed of boy

Therefore minimum speed to match the record time is

24.5=(v-2)11

v-2=2.22

v=4.22 m/s

Therefore a speed greater than 4.22 m/s is required to beat the record
