A pickleball moves at a speed of 100 miles per hour. What is the speed in feet per minute?
5,280 feet = 1 mile
60 minutes = 1 hour
To convert 100 miles per hour to feet per minute, we need to multiply the speed by the conversion factors for miles to feet and hours to minutes.
First, let's convert miles to feet:
100 miles * 5,280 feet/mile = 528,000 feet
Next, let's convert hours to minutes:
1 hour * 60 minutes/hour = 60 minutes
Now, we can calculate the speed in feet per minute:
Speed = 528,000 feet / 60 minutes = 8,800 feet per minute
Therefore, the speed of the pickleball in feet per minute is 8,800 feet per minute.
