$A$ particle starting from rest and moving with a uniform acceleration along a straight line covers distances $a$ and $b$ in successive intervals of $p$ and $q$ seconds. The acceleration of the particle is

  • A
    $\frac{a+b}{2(p+q)}$
  • B
    $\frac{2(bq - ap)}{pq(p+q)}$
  • C
    $\frac{2(bp - aq)}{pq(p+q)}$
  • D
    $\frac{2(bq + ap)}{pq(p+q)}$
