speed = distance / time
distance = 10.2 miles
time = 5mins 37s = 337s (divided by 3600s in an hour [60s/min * 60mins=3600]) = 0.09361 hours
therefore speed = 10.2miles/0.09361 hours
or 109 mph.

speed=distance/time
convert into metres per second
16414.55m, 337seconds
speed=16414.55/337
speed=48.7m/sec
