    Answer:

    1.43 × 10^-2 m/s

    Explanation:

    Given the following :

    Distance covered away from it’s master = D1 = 24×10^-2 m

    Time taken to cover the distance = t1 = 12.6s

    Then runs halfway back D2 =

    D1/ 2 = (24× 10^-2m) / 2 = 12 ×10^-2m

    Time taken =T2 = T1/3 = 12.6/3 = 4.2s

    Since the kitten ran in a straight line, the it is linear :

    Average speed

    Linear Average Velocity:

    Change in distance / change in time

    (D1 – D2) / (T2 – T1)

    (24 – 12)×10^-2 / (12.6 – 4.2)

    (12 × 10^-2)m / 8.4s

    1.4285 × 10^-2

    = 1.43 × 10^-2m/s
