To calculate the speed of the object, you can use the formula:
\[
\text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}
\]
In this case, the distance is 10 centimeters and the time is 2 seconds. Substituting these values into the formula gives:
\[
\text{Speed} = \frac{10 \text{ cm}}{2 \text{ sec}} = 5 \text{ cm/sec}
\]
It seems that the correct answer, 5 cm/sec, is not listed among your options. Therefore, none of the provided responses are correct. If the question means to convey a speed instead of listed options, the calculation shows it to be 5 cm/sec.
