Horses have been the tried and true method of traveling in the days before cars, alongside of oxen and mules.
When traveling long distances on a horse, the standard was to have a horse breed and trained for such a purpose and be within the proper age to travel (not to young, not to old).
When these conditions were met, the average is true:
At a good trot gait intermixed with slower 'resting' pace, while traveling in good conditions on good terrain, a horse could travel for 8 hours (with frequent rests) at around an average of between 3 mph (walk) to 8 mph (trot).
Many would consider 25-30 miles in a day a successful day of travel. If conditions are PERFECT and the horse is well rested, there have been days where a horse can exceed 60 miles of travel.

What is one horse length?
One horse length is typically considered to be approximately 8 feet, which is the average length from the head to the tail of a horse. This unit of measurement is often used in horse racing to describe the distance between horses at the finish line.

What is the average length of a galloping stride of a horse?
The average length of a galloping stride of a horse is approximately 20-25 feet. This can vary depending on the size and breed of the horse.
What is the average shoulder height for a horse?
Horses range greatly in hight. The average riding horse would probably be around 5 feet tall.
What is the speed of traveling a long distance on horseback?
The average speed of a horse's walk, which could be maintained for long distances, is three to four miles per hour. The average distance horses are capable of covering within one continuous day is thirty miles.
What is mesured in distance and time?
That would be Speed. Speed is the distance you are going divided by the time it takes. This will calculate the average speed you were traveling.
What is the average of car traveling for 1000 miles in 6 hours?
If you mean the average speed, simply divide the total distance by the total time.
An average freight train traveling at 30 MPH needs a stopping distance of more than?
1/2
The average speed of a horse that gallops a distance 60km in a time of 2hours is?
(60 divided by 2) kph
What is the difference between actual speed and average speed?
Actual speed is the speed you are traveling at any given moment at any given point. Average speed is figured by dividing the distance you traveled by the time it took you to drive that distance.
An average freight train traveling at 30 MPH needs a stopping distance of more than mile?
1/2 mile
What is the braking distance of a car traveling 40 mph?
On average it is in the low 80ft range. Depends on the vehicle, yr/make/model.
What is the average speed of a horse that sprints 100 meters in 4 seconds?
The average speed of a horse can be calculated using the formula: speed = distance/time. In this case, the horse sprints 100 meters in 4 seconds, so the average speed is 100 meters ÷ 4 seconds = 25 meters per second.
Is an object traveling at an average speed if its speed does not change?
Yes, an object is traveling at an average speed if its speed does not change over a period of time. The average speed is calculated by taking the total distance traveled and dividing it by the total time taken, regardless of any fluctuations in speed during that time.
What does the driver check while looking a the speedometer?
The driver checks the average speed of the car, which is the distance per hour is going. Average speed is the constant speed something is traveling at.
What is average speed and how do you calculate it?
to find average speed divide the distance traveled by the time it took to travel that distance so for example: what is the average speed of a runner that traveled 10 miles in 2 hours? 10(distance)/2(time) = 5(speed), so the answer would be 5 miles per hour although they may not have been traveling 5 miles per hour the whole time the average speed they were traveling is 5 miles per hour. also you can find the distance by multiplying the time by the speed. and to find time, multiply speed by distance. (dont forget units will vary for answers) hope this helped :)
