During the same Olympics, Bolt also set the world record in the 200m dash with a time of 19.30 s. Using the same assumptions as for the 100 m dash (that is, it took him 3.00s to reach maximum speed), what was his maximum speed for this race?

My pug/bulldog mix, Georgia, who is blind and deaf, gets a whiff of her dinner. As soon as it registers to her that it's dinnertime, she runs 4.12 meters from the middle of our living room to our kitchen, where she is satiated with her grub. If it takes her 4.45 s to get to the kitchen, what was her speed in m/s to the nearest hundredth?
here is my problem, I need help: One simple model for a person running the 100 mm dash is to assume the sprinter runs with constant acceleration until reaching top speed, then maintains that speed through the finish line. If a sprinter reaches his top speed of 11.1 m/sm/s in 2.64 ss , what will be his total time? Express your answer in seconds.
The 1992 world speed record for a bicycle (human-powered vehicule) was set by Chris Huber. His time through the measured 200m stretch was a sizzling 6.509 s, at which he commented "Cognito ergo zoom". In 2001, Sam Whittingham's beat Hubert's record by 19.0km/h. What was Whittingham's time through the 200m? (hint: d=rt).

His time through the measured 200 m stretch was a sizzling 6.509 s, at which he commented, “Cogito ergo zoom!” (I think, therefore I go fast!). In 2001, Sam Whittingham beat Huber’s record by 19.0 km/h. What was Whittingham’s time through the 200 m?
In a 5000 m race, the athletes run 1212 laps; each lap is 400 m. Kara runs the race at a constant pace and finishes in 17.4 min. Hannah runs the race in a blistering 15.3 min, so fast that she actually passes Kara during the race.
A landscape architect is planning an artificial waterfall in a city park. Water flowing at 1.70 m/s will leave the end of a horizontal channel at the top of a vertical wall h = 2.35 m high, and from there it will fall into a pool (Fig. P3.42). (a) Will the space behind the waterfall be wide enough for a pedestrian walkway? (b) To sell her plan to the city council, the architect wants to build a model to standard scale, which is one-twelfth actual size. How fast should the water flow in the channel in the model?

Tired, you walk from your house to a local coffee shop to get an espresso. You average a speed of 2.4 m/s on your way there. After your espresso, you decide to run directly back to your starting point with an average speed of 5.6 m/s. Assume you spend 4 minutes at the coffee shop. If your average speed for this entire trip is 1.9 m/s, what is the distance between your house and the coffee shop?
