Their speed is ten yards per second.
Takamo added: There are several variables with in this question. We have to determine how fast a person can cover 40 yards. In this case, it's 4 seconds. To determine the actual speed, as in Miles Per Hour, (MPH) we have to use a known constant. Say, a car going 60 MPH. We all know that a car going 60 MPH is traveling at one mile per minute. There are 60 seconds in a minute, and 5280 feet in a mile, so by dividing the 5280 feetby 60 seconds, we find that the car is traveling at a velocity of 88 FPS(feet per second).
A human can run, in this case, 40 yards in 4 seconds. There is 120 feet in 40 yards, so the runner moves at a velocity of 30 FPS. To match the un-known, (the MPH of the runner) and compare it to a known MPH, (the car) we divide the FPS of the car by the FPS of the runner and we get 2.6. This is the variable between them, in that the same distance, the car is traveling 2.6 times faster than the runner. Knowing the speed of the car, 60 MPH, and knowing now, how much faster its going than the runner, we simply divide the MPH of the car, 60MPH by 2.6 and we get the runner's land speed of of 23.07 MPH.

How many miles per hour is running 100 yards in 9.7 sec?
To do this you need to know:60 second in a minute60 minutes in an hour1760 yards in one mileNow first work out how far one would travel running at that speed in one minute, by finding how far you would have traveled in one second-100/9.7 = 10.30927835051546 yards /secondThen multiply by 60 to get distance traveled in one minute =10.30927835051546 * 60 = 618.5567010309278 yards / minute.Now multiply by 60 again to get the distance traveled in an hour618.5567010309278*60=37113.40206185567 yards / hourOK we now know that we would be running at a speed of 37113.40206185567 yards an hour. BUT we want the answer in miles an hour, so we have to divide this by the number of yards in a mile:37113.40206185567/1760=21.09 miles per hour.Compare this with the related answer for this question where the distance run was in Meters (which are longer than yards - so you would be running faster)

What is greater 45 feet or 12 yards?
1 yard = 3 feet 2 yards = 6 feet 3 yards = 9 feet 4 yards = 12 feet . . 12 yards = 36 feet That's less than 45 feet.
The length of a new rectangle playing field is 8 yards longer than quadruple the width If the perimeter of the rectangle playing field is 496 yards What are its dimensions?
The length is 200 yards and the width is 48 yards.length + width = 248 yards, and length = (4 x width) + 8 yards.substituting (4 x width) + 8 yards for length,(4 x width) + 8 yards + width = 248 yards;simplifying, width = 240/5 yards = 48 yards;then length = 248 - 48 yards = 200 yards

How do you convert 139 yards long in 25.75 seconds to miles per hour?
To convert 139 yards in 25.75 seconds to miles per hour, first calculate the speed in yards per second. Then convert yards to miles (1 mile = 1760 yards). Finally, convert seconds to hours (1 hour = 3600 seconds). Calculate the speed in miles per hour using the obtained values.
If you run 100 yards in 10 seconds how many miles per hour is that equal to?
100 yards in 10 seconds 20.45 miles per hour.
How many seconds will it take you to run 100 yards if your average speed is 12 miles per hour?
It will take you 17.05 seconds to run 100 yards.
300 yards in 15 seconds what is the mph?
To convert yards to miles, we divide by 1760 (1760 yards in a mile). So, 300 yards is 0.1705 miles. To convert seconds to hours, we divide by 3600 (3600 seconds in an hour). Therefore, 15 seconds is 0.0042 hours. Using the formula Speed = Distance / Time, we get: Speed = 0.1705 miles / 0.0042 hours = approximately 40.6 mph.
What is the rate in yards per minute of 2.5 seconds?
None. 2.5 seconds is a period of time. It is not a speed since there is no measure of distance involved. By contrast, yards per minte is a measure of speed. The two measures are incompatible.
How many yards is a person running if they finished a 110 yard race in 15 seconds?
110 yards no matter how fast they run.
How many mph is 100 yards 11 seconds?
To find out how many mph is 100 yards in 11 seconds: First, convert 100 yards to miles (100 yards = 0.057 miles). Next, calculate the speed by dividing the distance (in miles) by the time (in hours) - 0.057 miles / (11 seconds / 3600 seconds) = 19.64 mph.
