A model rocket was launched to an attitude of 54,925 feet.how many feet above 10 miles did it traval?
1 mile = 5,280 feet
10 miles = 52,800 feet
54,925 - 52,800 =
To determine how many feet above 10 miles the model rocket traveled, we first need to convert 10 miles to feet.
1 mile is equal to 5,280 feet, so to convert 10 miles to feet, you multiply 10 by 5,280:
10 miles * 5,280 feet/mile = 52,800 feet
Therefore, 10 miles is equal to 52,800 feet.
Now we can find out how many feet above 10 miles the rocket traveled by subtracting the rocket's altitude of 54,925 feet from 52,800 feet:
54,925 feet - 52,800 feet = 2,125 feet
Therefore, the rocket traveled 2,125 feet above 10 miles.
