Usain Bolt is the fastest human, ever, winning many Olympic gold medals. His fastest speed was a little bit over 27 mph. So your answer is 'no'.
Of course, we know nothing of fast humans before they started timing sprints and recording the times.
My new answer:
Usain Bolt acheived a top speed of 27.28 mph or43.90 kph in travellng the 2 fastest consecutive 60-70 & 70-80, 10m splits ever of .82 seconds.
We'll leave out 4x100m splits as I don't have them for Team Jamaica's WR from Beijing.
Old answer:
Since Usain Bolt became the 100m WR holder with a 9.68, I don't know if this figure still stands but in the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, Donovan Bailey in a WR time of 9.84 secs, covered a 10m portion at 12.1 meters per second. That would translate to about 27 MPH or about 43 Km/h. Both he and Maurice Greene hit a 10m section of the 100m final of the 1997 World Championships at 11.91 m/s... Greene ran a 9.86 and Bailey ran a 9.91. That would mean both reached a speed of roughly 26.5 MPH. Considering that, even the reductions the WR has taken in the last 12 years, it would be okay to assume 27-28 MPH is the fastest speed ever attained by a person running. Though Bob Hayes, in 1964, ran his leg of the 4x100m relay in 8.50 seconds.
The fastest speed that a human being has ran is 27.28 mph or 43.90 kph. This was run by Usain Bolt in the fastest consecutive races. Speed is down to the muscle tone and fitness as examples.
Slower than a cheetah.
No
20 mph
Answer: 30 km/h = 18.6411 mph
29.92 mph
Distance = Speed*Time = 30 mph * 1/2 hour = 15 miles.
It really does depend on how fit and healthy you are!The fastest Human Ever recorded:As of June 2000, the fastest human ever recorded is Michael Johnson, the American track and field star. On August 1, 1996 he set the world record by running 200 meters in 19.32 seconds. He won an Olympic title in Atlanta, GeorgiaJohnson's record can be calculated to equal 10.35 m/s or 37.267 km/hNote -this speed is slow compared to the cheetah who can run at a top speed of about 30 m/s or 100 km/h -- three times the speed of the fastest person on Earth.The Average Human:The average person runs generally from 12 - 17 miles an hour in sprints. Running over a longer period of time you can potentially go faster. Humans are some of the slowest mammals because we have not adapted fully into being bipedal creatures. We still have a short femur bone from when we crawled.
Speed skaters can do average speeds at close to 30 mph. Some of the top athletes such as Apollo Ohno are said to even get up to speeds as fast 35 mph.
A Hippo can run from 18 mph / 30 khm; to 30 mph / 50 khm and the "Average Human" can run between 14 and 27 mph (Olympic sprinters ignored for the purposes of this question) - so the answer would be that a Hippo can, on average, outrun a human.
40km/h
Faster than any human can run, that is 60 miles per hour. The fastest man ever has never ran faster than 30 mph. A mile a minute is IMPOSSIBLE for a human being.
I would say 6 and above. I would say 6 mph and above.
20 to 30 mph
30 mph
20 to 30 mph
about 30 mph!
2.25 miles
No. The top speed for this species is around 30-35 mph.
30-35 mph
YES
