Question

The results of a swim Wet are shown. Who swam faster explain your reasoning

Answer 1

Answer:

The Susana swam the fastest.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed : It is defined as the distance traveled per unit time.

Formula used : $Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}$

First we have to determine speed of the following persons.

For Tawni :

Distance = 50 m

Time = 40.8 s

1.225 m/s which is the speed of Tawni.

--

For Pepita :

Distance = 100 m

Time = 60.2 s

1.661 m/s which is the speed of Pepita

--

For Susana :

Distance = 200 m

Time = 112.4 s

1.779 m/s which is the speed of Susana

From this we conclude that, in this problem meter affects the response and the speed of Susana is more than the Pepita and Tawani.

Thus, Susana swam the fastest.
