Question:

A good swimmer can swim 100 m in about a minute. If a swimmer’s body is 1.85 m long, how many body lengths does he swim per second? Repeat the calculation for the sperm of Fig. 10–10. In other words, how many body lengths does the sperm swim per second? Use the sperm’s whole body length, not just that of his head, for the calculation. Compare the two results and discuss.
