Answer:
Thus, average speed of the sprinter is 0.5854 [tex]\frac{km}{h}[/tex].
Given:
Total distance = 200 m = 0.2 km
Total time = 20.5 second = [tex]\frac{20.5}{60}[/tex] hour = 0.3416 hour
To find:
Average speed = ?
Formula used:
Average speed = [tex]\frac{Total distance}{Total time}[/tex]
Solution:
Average speed of the sprinter is given by,
Average speed = [tex]\frac{Total distance}{Total time}[/tex]
Average speed = [tex]\frac{0.2}{0.3416}[/tex]
Average speed = 0.5854 [tex]\frac{km}{h}[/tex]
Thus, average speed of the sprinter is 0.5854 [tex]\frac{km}{h}[/tex].
