In the 400 meters race, athletes start from a staggered position to ensure that each runner covers the same distance on the curve of the track. The starting distance for each lane varies, with runners in the outer lanes starting farther back than those in the inner lanes. This staggered start accounts for the curvature of the track, allowing all competitors to run a full 400 meters.
Each stage is 400m in length.
400m-3000m so 400,800,1000,1500,3000
100 Meters
On a 400m track - 200m, 400m, 800m, 4x100m, 4x400m (and other non-Olympic distance relays)
the total distance you run is 400m. so it is the same thing. all 4x100 means is that there are 4 people running 100 meters.
The average velocity of a runner who completes one lap of a 400m track in 75 seconds is 5.33 m/s. This is calculated by dividing the distance traveled (400m) by the time taken (75s).
Distance and displacement are both measured in the same units (metres in SI units). The difference is that distance measures exactly how far something has travelled while displacemnt measures how far something is from where it started. e.g. If you travel 400m in a straight line your displacement and distance are both 400m but if you travel 400m around an athletics track your distance is 400m but your distance is 0m because you are back where you started.
between each of the people there are 100 meters
A lap is not a regulation measurement. It can be almost any distance.
Frequency is the number of waves per second, i.e. 20Hz is 20 waves per second. Wavelength is obviously the length of each wave i.e 20m So if there are 20 waves per second, the distance it travels is the length of the wave multiplied by the number of waves in one second. The distance travelled in one second by the wave above is therefore 20 * 20m wich is 400m. The distance travelled in 1 second is 400m. Therefore every second, the wave travels 400m and thus the speed is 400meters per second (400m/s).
400m
To determine how many laps a person runs on a 400m track during a 1500m race, divide the total distance of the race by the length of the track. A 1500m race is equivalent to 1500m ÷ 400m, which equals 3.75 laps. Therefore, a runner completes 3 full laps and an additional 300 meters on the 400m track.
