Hundred yard dash time is 9.9 what would be the equivalent time in the 100 m meters?

1 yard = 0.9144 meters (exactly) 100 yards = 91.44 meters (approximately) Therefore, the speed for a 9.9 second 100 yard dash can be calculated as: Speed = Distance / Time Speed = 91.44 / 9.9 Speed = 9.232 m/s To convert this speed to the 100 meters equivalent time, we can use the formula: Time = Distance / Speed Time = 100 / 9.232 Time = 10.81 seconds (approximately) Therefore, a 9.9 second 100 yard dash is equivalent to a 10.81 second 100 meters race.
