Answer:

7.6 m/s faster

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of swimmer = 1.8 meters per second

The distance covered by runner = 200

Time of runner = 21.3 sec

We have to find the speed of the runner first so that we can compare with the speed of swimmer.

Speed = Distance/Time

=> 200/21.3

=> 9.4 m/s

So we have to find the difference between both speeds

Difference = 9.4 - 1.8

=> 7.6 m/s

So the runner was 7.6 m/s faster..

Answer:

7.6m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the time the Olympian swam

Speed=distance/time ⇒⇒Time=distance/speed

Distance=200m , speed= 1.8m/s   t= 200/1.8 = 111.11 seconds

Find the speed of the Olympic runner

Distance=200m  time = 21.3 sec  

s=200/21.3 = 9.4 m/s

Difference in speed= 9.4-1.8= 7.6m/s

When there is no outlier is thebetter measure of center for a set of data
tester [92]

Answer:

Median

Explanation:

The median is the middle number. This answer fits best with the question asked.

The mode is the number that occurs the most. This number doesn't really have a correlation to the middle of this data.

The range is just how many numbers the data spans across. It has no relation to the middle of the data.

Using it's concepts, the average speed and the average velocity are given as follows:

  • Average speed: 40 miles per hour.
  • Average velocity: 0 miles per hour.

<h3>Average speed</h3>

The average speed is given by the quotient between the total distance traveled and the time taken, that is:

Average speed = total distance/time

In this problem, the total distance is of 60 miles(30 miles west + 30 miles south), in a time of 1.5 hours(1 hour west and 0.5 hours south), hence the average speed is given as follows:

Average speed = 60/1.5 = 40 miles per hour.

<h3>Average velocity</h3>

The average velocity is given by the quotient between the displacement and the time taken, that is:

Average velocity = displacement/time

The displacement is the difference between the final position and the initial position. Since the person got back to the start, finish = start, hence the displacement is of zero, as is the average velocity.
