char array col_names = [time; speed; distance...] and double array data = [0;1;2;3... ,10;20;30;40.. ,5;6;7;8...]. col_names is a mXn matrix and data is a kXm matrix. I need to generate workspace variables time, speed, distance.. with their value content coming from data matrix

Stephen, thanks for the link, however I was not able to make eval work for me for my given problem at hand. I tried doing the following and i got an error saying "scripted assignment dimension mismatch"
for i = 1:length(col_names)
eval('col_names(i,1:end) = data(:,i)');
end

The syntax should have been:
for i = 1:size(col_names,1)
eval([col_names(i,1:end) ' = data(:,i)']);
BUT ... you are missing the entire point of Stephen's post. This is a very poor programming practice. Read Stephen's link to see why and to discover better methods of writing your code that are easier to read, maintain, etc.

Here is an example
col_names = ['time ';'speed'];
data = [0 1;2 3;4 5];
for m = 1:2
eval(sprintf('%s = data(:,m)',col_names(m,:)));
end

I have no issue running this code. Can you clear your workspace and try again? This is just an example showing how this can be done.

Instead of dynamically creating variables, I recommend creating a table array. The variables (columns) in a table are named so you can reference the data using those names.
>> R = randi([-10 10], 15, 3);
>> T = array2table(R, 'VariableNames', {'time', 'speed', 'distance'});
>> T.distance ./ T.time
