To get total time, you convert minutes to seconds. For example, a time of 1:54:90 minutes converts to 114.90 seconds. This is seen by:

1 minute = 60 seconds

60s + 54.90s = 114.90s

To get average speed, determine the distance and time you are using:

Distance: 200m

Reaction Time: .67 seconds

$$Time_p=114.90- .67=114.23s$$

$$Average Speed=\frac{200m}{114.23s}=1.75 m/s$$

To get total time, you convert minutes to seconds. For example, a time of 1:56:28 minutes converts to 116.28 seconds. This is seen by:

1 minute = 60 seconds

60s + 56.28s = 116.28s

To get average speed, determine the distance and time you are using:

Distance: 200m

Reaction Time: .67 seconds

$$Time_p=116.28- .67=115.61s$$

$$Average Speed=\frac{200m}{115.61s}=1.73 m/s$$
