4.6 seconds on the 40m sprint is about average, but it really depends on your body type. A big, muscular guy might run a 4.59, but that doesn't mean he is average. A thin guy might run a 4.6, at that might make him average or even worse. It really depends on your body type. For example, if you have a 6'2" 250 lbs. linebacker run and a 6'2" 180 lbs. punter run the 40m sprint, which do you expect will win? The 6'2" 180 lbs. punter because he has less weight to carry. If they both run the same time, you can expect that the 6'2" 250 lbs. linebacker is pretty fast for his body type. Hope this isn't too confusing!

How do you define average speed?

average speed is the average rate of movement, for example, the number of feet traveled on a yard.average speed is the-total distance/total time.


What does average speed and average time have in common?

Apart from the fact that they are average, nothing. For example, the average time I spend sleeping has nothing to do with any average speed.


When is average speed of an object not equal to average velocity?

For example, an object goes in a circle, at a speed of 50 km/hour. The average speed is 50 km/hour; the average velocity is zero.


Can average speed of a moving object be zerogive an example?

No, it can't. Average VELOCITY can be zero, though.


What is an example where instantaniouse speed is differant from average speed?

This will happen any time the speed changes over time.


Can you say that the average speed is always less than the instantaneous speed example?

donkeys is the clue


Can average speed and speed per hour be equal?

Yes. For example, if you drive exactly 65 MPH consisently for an hour, your average speed will also be 65 MPH.


Can a body have nonzero average speed but have zero average velocity give example?

An object moving in a circular path at constant speed will have a non-zero average speed and zero average velocity since velocity is a vector parameter,


In what condition average velocity is equal to average speed give an example?

When an object is moving along a straight line at a variable speed, we can express the magnitude of the rate of motion in terms of average velocity.It is the same way as we calculate average speed.


Average velocity of a particle is zero but not its average speed .. is it possible?

Yes - for example, if an object moves in a circle.


Can the average speed of a body be zero and can the average velocity of a moving body be zero?

Since speed is a scalar quantity, the only way the average speed can be zero is if the instantaneous speed is at all times zero, making it not a moving body, so no on the average speed. The average velocity, on the other hand, can easily be zero. The simplest example is you running in a circle.
