To find the speed of the pickleball in feet per minute, we can use the following conversions:
1 mile = 5,280 feet
1 hour = 60 minutes
Therefore, the speed of the pickleball in feet per minute would be:
100 miles per hour * 5,280 feet per mile * (1 hour / 60 minutes) = 100 * 5,280 / 60 = 8,800 feet per minute
So, the correct answer is 8,800 feet per minute.
To convert miles to feet, we multiply by 5,280.
To convert hours to minutes, we multiply by 60.
So, if a pickleball moves at a speed of 100 miles per hour, the speed in feet per minute would be:
100 miles/hour * 5,280 feet/mile * 1 hour/60 minutes = 88,000 feet per minute.
Therefore, the correct answer is 88,000 feet per minute.
To convert the speed of a pickleball from miles per hour to feet per minute, you need to use the conversion factors given:
1 mile = 5,280 feet
1 hour = 60 minutes
First, divide the speed of the pickleball in miles per hour by the conversion factor for miles to feet:
100 miles per hour * (5,280 feet / 1 mile) = 528,000 feet per hour
Next, divide the speed in feet per hour by the conversion factor for hours to minutes:
528,000 feet per hour * (1 hour / 60 minutes) = 8,800 feet per minute
So, the speed of a pickleball is 8,800 feet per minute. Therefore, the correct answer is:
8,800 feet per minute.
