Question

As Saturn revolves around the sun, it travels at a speed of approximately 6 miles per second. Convert this speed to miles per minute. At this speed, how many miles will Saturn travel in 3 minutes? Do not round your answers.

Answer 1

hey how are you i have not heard from you in a long time i will help you if i can

Answer 2

okay thank you

Answer 3

this is very simple all you need to do is mutability 6 by 60 as the first step

Answer 4

then multiply your answer by 3 to get blank miles per 3 min.

Answer 5

Hey there Nadia. As you know, there are 60 seconds in a minute. So, to convert the speed of 6 mps to mpm, you will need to multiply the 6 and 60. That is going to give you a total of 360 miles per minute. Next step, is to multiply 360 by 3. Then, you should have your answer.

Answer 18

A parachutist's speed during a free fall reaches 198 feet per second. What is this speed in meters per second? At this speed, how many meters will the parachutist fall during 5 seconds of free fall? In your computations, assume that 1meter is equal to 3.3 feet. Do not round your answers.
I tried doing this one but i got it wrong can u help me anyone

Answer 19

@pinklion23

Answer 20

yes Nadia

Answer 21

Well. since there are 3 feet per meter, you can divide 198 by 3. for your first step

i got 66 ?

Answer 24

oh never mind then

Answer 25

66 meters per second.

Answer 26

lol so what would the next step be

Answer 27

so mutiply 66 by 5

Answer 28

well, the question says that a meter is 3.3, so divide 198 by 3.3 and round.

Answer 29

yes because you must round

Answer 30
