As per the question the total distance is given as 4 km.

We are asked to calculate the average speed.

The time taken by the body to travel each kilometre are 5.9 min,6.2 min.,6.3min. and 6 min. respectively.

The average speed of a body is defined as the ratio of total distance travelled by the body to the total time.

Mathematically the average speed is written as _

V= Total distance/Total time

i.e V = S/T

Where S is the total distance travelled and T is the total time

Here total distance (S)= 4 km

The total time T= (5.9+6.2 +6.3+ 6.0 )minutes

=24.4 min.

Hence average speed V = 4 km/24.4 min

= 0.16 km/min.

Hence the correct option is A .

The scientist is likely to be studying kinematics.
Kinematics is the branch of science, specifically physics, which is concerned with the motion of objects without reference to the forces that induce this motion. An example of kinematics is studying the change in velocity of an object over time or the distance covered by an object in a specified amount of time.
