Is police radar accurate when he is traveling toward you?

Yes. The radar calculating unit is reading more than one speed. It reads the patrol car speed from stationary objects (the ground, signs, etc.) and subtracts that speed from the speed at which your car and his car are coming together. If the patrol car is doing 38 and you are doing 55, the radar unit will read 38 from the ground and 93 from your car. It subtracts the 38 from the 93 and displays your speed as 55.

What is the speed of someone running 40 yards in 4 seconds?

Their speed is ten yards per second.Takamo added: There are several variables with in this question. We have to determine how fast a person can cover 40 yards. In this case, it's 4 seconds. To determine the actual speed, as in Miles Per Hour, (MPH) we have to use a known constant. Say, a car going 60 MPH. We all know that a car going 60 MPH is traveling at one mile per minute. There are 60 seconds in a minute, and 5280 feet in a mile, so by dividing the 5280 feetby 60 seconds, we find that the car is traveling at a velocity of 88 FPS(feet per second).A human can run, in this case, 40 yards in 4 seconds. There is 120 feet in 40 yards, so the runner moves at a velocity of 30 FPS. To match the un-known, (the MPH of the runner) and compare it to a known MPH, (the car) we divide the FPS of the car by the FPS of the runner and we get 2.6. This is the variable between them, in that the same distance, the car is traveling 2.6 times faster than the runner. Knowing the speed of the car, 60 MPH, and knowing now, how much faster its going than the runner, we simply divide the MPH of the car, 60MPH by 2.6 and we get the runner's land speed of of 23.07 MPH.
