FormulaAverage = distance/(first_half+second_half); Second half speed = distance/2/second_half; Speed change = distance/2/second_half-distance/2/first_half

Made for real tasks

  • Calculate average speed between timing gates and compare entry and exit halves.
  • Compare two scenarios by changing the inputs and rerunning the tool.

How to use this tool

  1. Enter distance, first half, second half.
  2. Use consistent units shown beside each input. Run the calculation and review the assumptions below.

Try this example

{
  "distance": 30,
  "first_half": 1.6,
  "second_half": 1.4
}

Accuracy and scope

Two measured halves are equal distances. Results are average gate-to-gate speeds, not instantaneous acceleration; timing uncertainty and reaction starts are not modeled.
