Measure: For each animal, measure distance traveled and time using any method you wish. Divide distance by time to calculate speed. Measure running animals only.

Cheetah

Eagle

Person

Rhino

Warthog

Zebra

Answer 1

To conduct the measurements for the running animals (Cheetah, Elephant, Gazelle, Giraffe, Lion, Person, Rhino, Warthog, and Zebra), you can set up a small experiment or find data from reputable sources. Below is a hypothetical example of what your measurements could look like based on typical speeds of these animals.

| Animal/Object | Distance (m) | Time (s) | Speed (m/s) | |---------------|---------------|----------|--------------| | Cheetah | 100 | 5 | 20 | | Eagle | 500 | 15 | 33.33 | | Elephant | 50 | 10 | 5 | | Gazelle | 200 | 8 | 25 | | Giraffe | 100 | 10 | 10 | | Jeep | N/A | N/A | N/A | | Lion | 100 | 6 | 16.67 | | Person | 100 | 12 | 8.33 | | Rhino | 50 | 8 | 6.25 | | Warthog | 100 | 12 | 8.33 | | Zebra | 200 | 10 | 20 |

Notes:

1. The data for distance and time are hypothetical and can vary based on conditions and individual animals.
2. The speeds are calculated using the formula: Speed (m/s) = Distance (m) / Time (s).
3. The Jeep is included for comparison but is not a running animal and therefore does not have applicable measurements.
4. Actual measurements might differ, and you should verify the values with reliable sources or experimental data to get accurate results.
