The men's world record for swimming 1500.0 m in a long course pool (as of 2007) is 14 min 34.56s. at this rate, how many seconds would it take to swim 0.350 miles? (1 mi=1609)

We must first find the rate taken to cover 1500.0 m within 14 min and 34.56 sec. We can first convert the time into seconds and hence, we have time = 14(60) + 34.56 = 874.56 seconds. Recall that rate = distance/ time. And using the given for the men's world record, we have rate = 1500.0 m / 874.56s = 1.715 m/s Now, to find the time taken to cover 0.350 miles, we can first convert the distance to meters then use the equation given below. time = distance/rate where distance is equal to 0.350(1609) = 563.15 m. Hence, we have time = 563.15 / 1.715 = 328.37 s From this, we can see that it will takes 328.37 seconds to cover 0.350 miles. 328.37 seconds

Hi i just wanted you and me and you are a nice right off my mind and
