1996 gail devers won the 100-meter dash in the olympic games. her times was 10.94 seconds. what was her speed in meters per second?

Answer 1

Solving this problem is just pretty straight forward. We simply have to get the ratio of distance and time to get the speed. that is:

speed = distance / time

speed = 100 m / 10.94 s

speed = 9.14 m/s
