To find the speed of the object, you can use the formula for speed, which is:
\[
\text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}
\]
In this case, the object travels 10 centimeters in 2 seconds. Plugging the values into the formula gives:
\[
\text{Speed} = \frac{10 \, \text{cm}}{2 \, \text{sec}} = 5 \, \text{cm/sec}
\]
However, it seems that this value is not among the provided responses. Thus, if we consider the available options, the correct choice based on the provided responses would be incorrect. The calculated speed is actually 5 cm/sec. Ensure there are no errors in the question or responses given.
