Question

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Answer 1

Answer:

4.44m/s

 

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of laps  = 4

Length of track  = 400m

Time taken  = 6min

Unknown:

Average speed  = ?

Solution:

The average speed is the total distance covered divided by the time taken.

It is mathematically expressed as;

  Average speed  = $\frac{total distance}{time taken}$  

Total distance  = number of laps x length of track  = 4 x 400  = 1600m

Now convert the time to seconds;

         60s  = 1 min

             6 minutes will be 6 x 60 = 360s

So;

  Average speed  = $\frac{1600}{360}$  = 4.44m/s
