“180” (tachymeter scale figure) x 1 job
“90” (tachymeter scale figure) x 1 (km or mile) = 180 jobs/hour
= 90 km/h or mph
l Tachymeter scale can be used only when the time required is less than 60 seconds. Ex. 2: If 15 jobs are completed in 20 seconds:
"180" (tachymeter scale figure) x 15 jobs = 2700 jobs/hour
Ex. 2: If the measuring distance is extended to 2 km or miles or shortened to 0.5 km or
miles and STOPWATCH second hand indicates “90” on tachymeter scale:
"90" (tachymeter scale figure) x 2 (km or mile) = 180 km/h or mph
"90" (tachymeter scale figure) x 0.5 (km or mile) = 45 km/h or mph
