Note for watches with a tachymeter scale
23
Reading off the tachymeter scale
23
The scale relates to a distance of one kilometre. You start the stop-
watch function at the outset of this distance and stop it when one
24
kilometre has been completed.
28
The second hand then shows on the scale the average speed
travelled.
For example: You are travelling as the PASSENGER in a car on the
32
motorway. The posts at the side of the motorway are set 50 metres
apart. You start the stopwatch process at the first post and end it as
36
you pass the twenty-first. You
have thus travelled one kilometre.
37
The second hand will now be
showing you the average speed. If
it took 30 seconds to travel this
one kilometre, the average speed
was 120 km/h.
