During the competition at the hippodrome, a jockey on a horse overcomes the distance from the first to the 26th

During the competition at the hippodrome, a jockey on a horse overcomes the distance from the first to the 26th pillar in 1 minute at what speed the horse runs if the distance between two adjacent pillars is 30 m.

The horse’s speed can be calculated using the formula:
V = S / t, where V is the speed of the horse’s movement (m / s), S is the distance traveled by the horse (S = (26 – 1) * 30, where 26 – 1 is the number of gaps between the posts from 1 to 26), t – the time of the horse’s movement (t = 1 min = 60 s).
Let’s calculate the speed of the horse’s movement:
V = S / t = (26 – 1) * 30/60 = 750/60 = 12.5 m / s.
Answer: The speed of the horse is 12.5 m / s.
