Typical speed of car (freeway); cheetah—fastest of all terrestrial animals; sailfish—fastest fish; speed of go-fast boat. 40: 140: 90: 1.3 × 10 −7: Typical peak speed of a local service train (or intercity on lower standard tracks). 40.05: 144.17: 89.59: 1.335 × 10 −7: Land speed record for a human powered vehicle.

[1] [2] A close relative of the common swift, the white-throated needletail (Hirundapus caudacutus), is commonly reported as the fastest bird in level flight with a reported top speed of 169 km/h (105 mph). This record remains unconfirmed as the measurement methods have never been published or verified.
The comfortable hopping speed for a kangaroo is about 21–26 km/h (13–16 mph), but speeds of up to 71 km/h (44 mph) can be attained over short distances, while it can sustain a speed of 40 km/h (25 mph) for nearly 2 km (1.2 mi). [89] The faster a kangaroo hops, the less energy it consumes (up to its cruising speed). [88]
The main protagonist, a farmer who has the blessing of Growth Promotion; allowing him to master skills ridiculously fast. By leveling up high enough, Al receives the Grace of the Earth's ability, for being a True Lover of Nature. Thus he ends up with the Attack Power of 73612; just tossing a carrot at a dragon makes it explode.
Fast-starts are split up into three stages. Stage one, which is called the preparatory stroke, is characterized by the initial bending to a C-shape with small delay caused by hydrodynamic resistance. Stage two, the propulsive stroke, involves the body bending rapidly to the other side, which may occur multiple times.
Growing up as a young investor, '70s and '80s, investing was basically like a math exercise back then. You're estimating growth rates, you're calculating valuation multiples, projecting target prices.
The largest living species is the Giant African Snail or Ghana Tiger Snail (Achatina achatina; Family Achatinidae), which can measure up to 30 cm. [13] [14] The largest land snails of non-tropical Eurasia are endemic Caucasian snails Helix buchi and Helix goderdziana from the south-eastern Black Sea area in Georgia and Turkey; diameter of the ...
In the process of plant roots growing in the direction of gravity by gravitropism, high concentrations of auxin move towards the cells on the bottom side of the root. This suppresses growth on this side, while allowing cell elongation on the top of the root. As a consequence of this, curved growth occurs and the root is directed downwards. [3]
