Option 1: $3.5v$

Option 3: $4.5v$

Option 4: $\frac{5}{3}v$

Solution : Given: $\frac{x}t=v$
Now, distance travelled by R on the second day = $2.5x$
Time taken by him to cover that distance = $0.75t$
So, speed on second day = $\frac{2.5x}{0.75t}=\frac{10}{3}v$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{10}{3}v$.
