Distance of full circular track is (2x350xpi) metres.
So distance covered in 5 mins is (2x350xpix2/3) metres.
So speed is [(2x350x2/3xpi)/5] m/min
or (2x70x2/3xpi) m/min (dividing 350 by 5)
or [(2x70x2/3xpi)/60] m/sec, there being 60 seconds in a minute.
That's the theory.
I'll leave you to do the arithmetic.

you know the radius of the track
so you can calculate its circumference
so you can calculate 2/3 of that
this is the distance travelled
speed = distance/time
(and it you couldnt work out how to do this question you really MUST go back and study your notes or books cos you are gonna get your a//se kicked on monday)
