What is the fastest running speed reliably recorded for a cheetah (set by Sarah at the Cincinnati Zoo in 2012), in km/h? (1 km/h ≈ 0.6 mph)
Answer
98 km/h
Sarah covered 100 meters in 5.95 seconds — Usain Bolt's world record is 9.58 seconds. A cheetah spends more than half of each sprint stride completely airborne.
