Answer: Her speed is 4.4 m/s, and her velocity is 0 m/s.

Explanation:

Formulae :\text{Speed}=\dfrac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}

\text{Velocity}=\dfrac{\text{Displacement}}{\text{Time}}

Given: Length of track start to finish=  400 meters

After completing its 4 laps, total distance covered = 400 × 4 = 1600 meters

Time taken by Lila =   6 minutes

= 6 × 60 seconds      [There are 60 seconds in 1 minute.]

= 360 seconds  

Then, \text{Speed}=\dfrac{1600}{360}=\dfrac{40}{9}m/s

= 4.44\ m/s

But from start to finish displacement = 0 m   [displacement is the shortest distance between starting point to the finishing point]

So, \text{Velocity}=\dfrac0{360}=0\ m/s

Hence, Her speed is 4.4 m/s, and her velocity is 0 m/s.

How does the enzyme present in the globular myosin head play its role during muscle contraction​
kifflom [539]

In addition to binding actin, the myosin heads bind and hydrolyze ATP, which provides the energy to drive filament sliding. This translation of chemical energy to movement is mediated by changes in the shape of myosin resulting from ATP binding.
