    Watts to Pace formula

    Hello,

    I need some help reversing this formula.

    If a person take 1min 34 sec to do 500m I would work out their watts by:

    Split = 1:34.0
    min = 1
    Sec = 34
    sec total = (1*60)+34) = 94
    Pace = Sec Total /500 = 0.188
    Watts = 2.8/(421*pace*pace*pace)

    How do I now work that formula backwards. As in: find out the split from their watts over 500m.

    Sweep's got you covered, but if you wanted to use Excel date/time values directly,

    A
    B
    C
    1
    Split
    0:01:34.0
    2
    Watts
    421
    B2: =2.8 * (500/(86400*B1))^3
    3
    4
    Watts
    421
    5
    Split
    0:01:34.0
    B5: =500 * (2.8 / B4)^(1/3) / 86400
