Students involved in the speed study <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Twelve students calculated, with the teacher’s supervision, the speed of the cars and trucks that passed us on three consecutive days in three different streets and spots of Corella:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Industrial site<\/li>
  2. El Villar Avenue, right in front of the school\u2019s main entrance.<\/li>
  3. Constitution Avenue<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    We followed this procedure: we measured 30 meters, and position 2 students at the beginning and end of this distance. We timed the cars and wrote down the seconds that took them to drive the 30-meter distance.
    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We went on with the calculations in class to find out the speed of the cars. We measured the speed of 50 cars at 13:00 every day. We checked the legal speed limits, compared these numbers with the speed of the cars and finally, we reached conclusions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
