was the runner's average speed?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

7.01yard/sec

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial position  = 50yard

Final position = 12yard

Time  = 5.42s

Unknown:

Average speed of runner  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem;

        Speed  = [tex]\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]  

Distance covered  = Initial position  - final position  = 50 - 12  = 38yards

So;

       Speed  = [tex]\frac{38}{5.42}[/tex]   = 7.01yard/sec
