16 The graph shows the distance travelled by a particle over the first 20 seconds of its motion.

Distance (metres, 0 to 40) against time (seconds, 0 to 20); a curve from the origin rising steeply then levelling off, through about (5, 21), (10, 30), (15, 34) to (20, 36)
(a) Show that the average speed of the particle over the first 20 seconds of its motion is 1.8 m/s. [1]
(b) Estimate the speed of the particle at 10 seconds, in m/s.
You must show working to support your estimate. [3]
