The correct answer is: $6 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{sec}^2$
Acceleration in the 1st part,
$\begin{aligned} & a_1=\frac{20-0}{20}=1 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}^2 \\ & a_2=0 \\ & a_3=\frac{80-20}{40-30}=\frac{60}{10}=6 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}^2 \\ & a_4=\frac{80-0}{80-40}=\frac{80}{40}=2 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}^2\end{aligned}$
Max. acceleration is $6 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}^2$
