Can you calculate your average speed while walking at different speeds?

For the speed of a single pedestrian, measure the time it takes him/her to walk a set distance (for example 10 meters) and divide the distance by the time. For the average speed of a pedestrian find a large number of people and measure the speed of each person and find the average by summing all the speeds and dividing by the number of people who took the test.

What distance can the average person cover in an hour by foot?
Walking quickly (power-walking) may take you up to speeds of 5mph. At this speed, it will take you one hour to travel five miles. I believe that the average walking speed is around 3mph. By using the formula s=d/t (where 's' is speed, 'd' distance and 't' time), we can derive that d/s=t, therefore 5/3=t, and the time is therefore somewhere in the region of 1 hour, 40 minutes. Bear in mind that everyone has their own walking speeds. At a speed of 2mph, it would take you 2 hours, 30 minutes, so it is highly variable.
What is a variable speed drill?
This variable speed drill is for drilling different diameter chose different speeds. Workpiece material in the drill speed is important.
What happens when the vocal cords vibrate at different speeds?
Different vibration frequencies of the vocal cords result in different sounds. This is essential for singers of all kinds. The vocal cords allow for musical sounds of the voice to be expressed.
Why do groups of scientists often work together and why is it important for scientists to describe objects completely?
if groups of scientists didn't work together they would go at different speeds and probably get different results need to describe it completely so that when they use that same factor in an experiment they have the data.
Do all liquids evaporate at the same time?
Yes and no. For practical purposes most all liquids will evaporate over time. Technically, you can create a controlled environement to eliminate evaporation.
What is the walking speeds for two people that are 5.5 miles apart that will meet in one hour?
Their average walking speed is 2.75 mph.
How do you find the average velocity if there are two different speeds?
We sum the two different speeds and devided by two
In a homogeneous mixture of particles are speeds even through out the mixture?
No. The particles have different speeds, and the average speed is used in calculations or discussions.
What is the average speed of an object moving constant in a circle?
An object can move in a circle at different speeds.
What are the uses of graphs in sports?
to calculate average speeds and to gather and colate information for example a month's training so you can see if your fitness is improving or not.
What speed is the average remote controlled car going up a 45 degree angle?
Cars - whether remote controlled or not - have a vast range of speeds. There is no systematic study to calculate the average speed.
Given two speeds how do you find the average?
If both speeds are used for the same amount of time, the average speed is just the sum of the two speeds divided by 2. If one speed is used for a longer time than another, you will have to calculate the total distance traveled for each speed (speed x time), and then divide by the total time (add the times).
Why is average speed not always the same as final speed?
It almost never is ... define average : ALL the different speeds divided by the number of times you measured it.
Which is better for you fitness walking or regular walking?
Fitness walking to me includes regular walking. There are different types of walking that I use for different purposes. If I walk casually then it's usually as a warm up or cool down tool. I step it up to about 2-3mph to work my heart a little more. Interval walking for me is great because I get to change speeds and also add an incline to my workout which challenges me in a shorter period of time then if I just casually walked.
What is Saturn's rotation on it's axis?
Saturn rotates at slightly different speeds at different latitudes. On average the rotation period is about 10 and a half hours.
How do astronomers know the sun's surface rotates at different speeds?
Sunspots rotate at different speeds.
What does math have to do with biking?
Whatever you want it to. Maths will let you do spoke length calculations for wheel building. You can calculate average speeds, length of ride averages etc. How to set the cyclocomputer.
