(i) We need to measure time in order to keep track of our day to day activities. For eg. Meeting with the doctor, Attending our class at time etc.

(ii) Your speed should be greater than that of the dog. Thus we will find speed of the dog and will come to know the minimum of your speed.

Speed = Distance covered / Time taken

          = 3 / 30 = 1/10 km/min.

Therefore, Speed = (1/10) x (1000/3600) = 1/36 m/s.

Thus you must run at least above the speed of (1/36) m/s.
