Question

The Grand Prix Formula 1 race this weekend is in Singapore. The race consists of 61 laps around a
5.067km long track. At 225 miles per hour, how long will it take to go around once?

Answer 1

distance = speed x time but since we are looking for time, lets change the equation to :
d/s = t
distance = 5.067 km
speed = 225 mph
now we sub
5.067/225 = .02252 rounds to about 2 seconds to go around 1 lap

Answer 2

Thats sounds really fast...too fast. I think that is correct. 5.067 km is a little over 3 miles, so I guess thats right.
