Answer : His average speed was, 5.735 m/s

Solution : Given,

Total distance covered = 5000 meter

Total time taken = 871.7 seconds

Average speed : It is defined as the total distance covered in total amount of time.

Formula used :

$\text{Average speed}=\frac{\text{Total distance covered}}{\text{Total time taken}}$

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get his average speed.

$\text{Average speed}=\frac{5000m}{871.7s}=5.735m/s$

Therefore, his average speed was, 5.735 m/s
