Speed

Speed is the measure of how fast an object moves, calculated as the distance traveled divided by the time taken. Whether watching a Grand Prix race or participating in a softball game, speed plays a crucial role in performance. For example, if Lauren throws a ball 80 feet in 1.58 seconds, understanding speed helps assess her pitching skills. Similarly, a motocross racer completing a 1200-meter lap at 27 meters per second can determine the time taken for the lap. Speed is essential in both motorsports and everyday activities.
