QUESTIONS
1. Calculate the average horizontal velocity in each of the 10-m intervals of your 40-m sprint (V
=_d/_t). Report your answers in m/s and mph (m/s • 2.237 = mph).
In an athlete in the first 10 meters starts with a speed of between 5 to 9.5 m/s, when it passes 10 and
reaches 20 meters increases speed however not as considerably with time as in the start thus reaching
the 10.9 m/s and finally reaching 40 meters a speed of 11.2 m/s was reached. The maximum
acceleration occurs in the first 10 seconds if we talk in the firsts 40 m and the maximum occurs in the
60 meters because the average velocity was 11.9 m/s.
