Chapter 26, Problem 15WIO
The following table shows recent men’s world-record times for various running events. Graph the distance traveled against the average running speed, in meters per second. How does the production of ATP by muscles over time explain the graph?
| Distance | Time | Average m/sec |
| 100 | 9.58 sec | 10.44 |
| 200 | 19.19 sec | 10.05 |
| 400 | 43.03 sec | 9.30 |
| 800 | 1 min, 40.91 sec | 7.93 |
| 1500 | 3 min, 26.00 sec | 7.28 |
| 5000 | 12 min, 37.35 sec | 6.60 |
