a humming bird flaps its wings 5,000 times in a minute when hovering over a place. How many times will it flap its wing in 15 seconds
To find out how many times the hummingbird will flap its wings in 15 seconds, we can first determine the number of flaps it makes in a second and then multiply it by 15.
In a minute, the hummingbird flaps its wings 5,000 times.
So in a second, it will flap its wings 5,000/60 = 83.33 times (approx).
Now we can calculate how many times it will flap its wings in 15 seconds:
83.33 flaps/second * 15 seconds = 1249.95 flaps (approx).
Therefore, the hummingbird will flap its wings approximately 1249 times in 15 seconds.
