The question asks if the top speed of the greyhound is faster than that of the cheetah or vice versa. Therefore, I’m not going to go into a long discussion about the endurance and acceleration of these two animals (but see below). I’m simply going to set down for the record what I think …
How fast can a cat accelerate? I am going to refer to domestic cats because that’s what the questioner is asking about. By now, I would expect most people to know that domestic cats can run at a maximum speed for short bursts of about 30 mph. This is 48 km/h. See the G-force …
