Today, we walked 4 kilometers (4000 meters) in 33 minutes and 27 seconds. What was our speed in meters per second? Hint: convert minutes to seconds, add 27 to get seconds. Divide to get meters per second.
Answer: very close to 2 meters per second.
Is this reasonable: make chalk marks, 2 meters apart. Start walking at one-Mississippi, hit the first chalk mark at two-Mississippi, can you hit the second chalk mark at three-Mississippi?
