Mary is swimming at a speed of 2 m/s. He swims for a total of 50 meters. How long will it take him to complete the race?
A
100 seconds
B
50 seconds
C
25 seconds
D
10 seconds
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -About 13–16 seconds is a good 25 metre time. There is no average time for age because time depends on fitness and skill. Really fast swimmers would do about 11 seconds. Check out masters swimming records to see fastest national and world times.

Detailed explanation-2: -And, at 30-45 minutes to complete for the average swimmer, 2km was seen as a manageable distance to train for and to get that great sense of satisfaction for completing.

Detailed explanation-3: -In terms of average speed for most swimmers, it can be really tough to get reliable figures! Probably the best page to try and pull some averages is Livestrong.com which suggests that the average pace for a 100m swim is around 2 minutes…so 50 meters would be around a minute.

Detailed explanation-4: -In Pool Training Session 11 you will swim 40 lengths of a 25 metre pool, or 1000 metres. Pool Training Session 11 sees you finally reach that 1km marker with your pool training!
