Sorry, it is mangled English. Can you try to fix it? The data values are important and they are missing.

Perhaps keep the data values away from the translator, type them in afterwards below the text as numbers with units?

Something about an average speed of 6 m/s?

If you are not sure about abbreviations, write things out in full, e.g., metres per second

I think the google translator can handle Afrikaans.

Perhaps you don't understand what is involved in the original question? So, try the google translator. http://translate.google.com/m/translate

goeie geluk!
