Asprinting cheetah covered a distance of 518 meters in 18.5 seconds. if the cheetah ran a constant speed, how fast was it running

Speed of the cheetah would be 28 m/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance covered = 518 meters

Time taken = 18.5 seconds

To Find:

Speed of cheetah = ?

Solution:

We are given with the distance and time of the cheetah and we have to find the speed of the cheetah which we can find out by the formula i.e.

Distance = speed * time

Putting in the values

518 = speed * 18.5

Dividing both sides by 18.5

it gives us

518 / 18.5 = speed                               ∴ 18.5 / 18.5 = 1  and 1* speed = speed

28 m/sec = speed

Or Speed = 28 m/sec

Speed of the cheetah would be 28 m/sec
