Speed Calculator

Average speed Speed - a scalar value equal to the ratio of distance and period of time which is spent on the passage of this distance.

The SI unit of speed is meter per second, but other units can also be used, such as kilometer per hour, centimeter per second, etc.

Speed Calculation Examples

Example 1.
The car covered 45 kilometers in 5 hours 6 minutes 13 seconds. What is the average car speed? Calculate the speed in meters per second.

Step by step solution:
Let's convert kilometers to meters. There are 1000 meters in one kilometer, so we multiply kilometers by 1000.
45 × 1000 = 45000 meters.

Let's convert hours into seconds.
There are 3600 seconds in one hour, which means we need to multiply the number of hours by 3600.
5 × 3600 = 18000

Let's convert minutes to seconds.
One minute has 60 seconds, which means we need to multiply the number of minutes by 60.
6 × 60 = 360

Add up the resulting number of seconds
18000 + 360 + 13 = 18373 seconds.

Find the average speed, divide the distance by time.

Speed =
45000
18373
= 45000/18373 = 2.44924617645458 Meters per second


Example 2.
The man walked 7831 yards in 1 hour and 15 minutes. How fast did the person move? Calculate the answer in Kilometers per hour.

Step by step solution:
Convert yards to kilometers. One kilometer is 1093.61 yards, so we divide yards by 1093.61.
7831 : 1093.61 = 783100/109361 = 7.160687996635 kilometers.

Let's convert minutes to hours.
One hour has 60 minutes, which means we need to divide the number of minutes by 60.
15 : 60 = 1/4

Add up the resulting number of hours.
1/4 + 1 = 5/4 = 1.25 hours.

Find the average speed, divide the distance by time.

Speed =
783100/109361
5/4
= 626480/109361 = 5.728550397308 Kilometers per hour


Distance Calculation Examples

Example 1.
The cyclist rode for 23 minutes at a speed of 10 Kilometers per hour. How many miles did the cyclist travel?

Step by step solution:
Let's convert kilometers to miles. One mile is 1.60934 kilometers, so we divide kilometers by 1.60934.
10 : 1.60934 = 500000/80467 = 6.21372736649807 miles.

Let's convert minutes to hours.
There are 60 minutes in one hour, which means we need to divide the number of minutes by 60.
23 : 60 = 23/60


Find distance, multiply speed by time.

Distance = 500000/80467 × 23/60 = 575000/241401 = 2.38192882382426 Mile


Example 2.
The schoolboy spent 45 minutes on the road to the sports ground, moving at a speed of 5 Kilometers per hour. How many meters did the student walk?

Step by step solution:
Let's convert kilometers to meters. There are 1000 meters in one kilometer, so we multiply kilometers by
5 × 1000 = 5000 meters.

Let's convert minutes to hours.
One hour has 60 minutes, which means we need to divide the number of minutes by 60.
45 : 60 = 3/4


Find distance, multiply speed by time.

Distance = 5000 × 3/4 = 3750 Meters


Time Calculation Examples

Example 1.
The boat sailed 1736 yards at a speed of 60 Kilometers per hour. How long did the boat sail?


Step by step solution:
Convert yards to kilometers. One kilometer is 1093.61 yards, so we divide yards by 1093.61.
1736 : 1093.61 = 24800/15623 = 1.58740318760801 kilometers.



Find time, divide distance by speed.

Time =
24800/15623
60
= 1240/46869 = 0.0264567197934669 hours


Time = 0 hours 1 minutes 35.2441912564808 seconds


Example 2.
The car, moving at a speed of 12 yards per second, covered a distance of 3000 kilometers. How long did the car drive?


Step by step solution:
Converting kilometers to yards. One kilometer is 1093.61 yards, so multiply kilometers by 1093.61.
3000 × 1093.61 = 3280830 yards.



Find time, divide distance by speed.

Time =
3280830
12
= 546805/2 = 273402.5 seconds


Time = 75 hours 56 minutes 42.5000000000091 seconds
