distance (cự ly) time (thời gian) average speed (tốc độ trung bình) calculate (tính) equation (phương trình) |
The winner of the race is the person who has the fastest average speed.
To calculate average speed, you need the following equation:
distance/ time = average speed
distance: the race was 200m.
time: Fields completed the 200m in 161seconds.
So, average speed:
200/161 = 1.24 metres a second (m/s)
To calculate average speed in kilometres anhour (km/h), use this equation:average speed in m/s × 3.6 = average speedin km/h.
1. Look again at the table in exercise 1. Calculate the average speed of Gomez, Jones and O’Hara in m/s.
2. Now calculate the average speed of all the swimmers in km/h.
