From the calculations, the speed of the jogger is calculated as 4.7 m/s.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

The term speed refers to the ratio of distance covered to time taken. In this case we know that;

steps per minute = 200 steps per minute.

1 stride length = 140 cm

Distance covered in 200 strides = 200 * 140 = 28000 cm or 280 m

time taken = 1 minute or 60 seconds

Speed of the jogger = 280 m/60 seconds = 4.7 m/s
