\(\text{Convert seconds to minutes:}\)

\(10\,500 \text{ seconds} = \dfrac{10\,000}{60} \text{ minutes} = 175 \text{ minutes} \)
 

\(\text{Convert minutes to hours and minutes:}\)

\(175 \text{ minutes} = \dfrac{175}{60} \text{ hours} = 2.916… \text{ hours} \)
 

\(\text{Calculate minutes:}\ 175-2 \times 60=55  \)

\(\therefore\ 175 \text{ minutes} = 2 \text{ hours } 55 \text{ minutes} \)

\(\Rightarrow A\)
