To calculate the speed of the object, you can use the formula for speed:
\[ \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \]
In this scenario, the distance traveled is 10 centimeters and the time taken is 2 seconds.
So,
\[ \text{Speed} = \frac{10 \text{ cm}}{2 \text{ sec}} = 5 \text{ cm/sec} \]
It appears that 5 cm/sec is not listed among the options you've provided. If you need to match to the closest option or find an error, please verify the inputs. Otherwise, based on standard calculations, the speed is indeed 5 cm/sec.
