The maximum speed of peregrine falcon dove is 200 mph.

Time of travel = 0.5 miles.

The relation of distance and speed is;

speed = distance/time

200 mph = 0.5 miles / time

Time = 0.5 miles / 200 mph

Time = 0.5 × 60 × 60 miles / 200 m/ sec

Time = 9 sec

Thus, time taken by peregrine falcon dove at its maximum speed to cover half a mile is 9 sec.
