Best Answer

The type of shark they are asking for is clearly a Great White Shark.

It's alot faster than 1 mph, a human swims 2-5 mph average.

It depends on what kind of shark, but the mako can get up to 45-50 mph in short bursts. When a shark is hitting prey from underneath they can reach up to 30mph.
It depends how big the shark is. If its a big shark it might swim 30 to 50 miles per hour. If its a small shark it may swim 10 to 20.
Faster than you!
