Question

A train is traveling at 50.0 miles per hour 1 mile is equal to 1.61

kilometers. How fast is the train moving in meters per second?
m/s​

Answer 1

The train is moving at the speed of 22.36 meters per second

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of the train = 50 .0 miles/hour

1 mile = 1.61 km

50 miles =
`50.0* 1.61 km=80.5 km`

1 km = 1000 m

1 hour = 3600 seconds

So,the speed of the train in meter per seconds:

`=(80.5* 1000 m)/(3600 s)=22.36 m/s`
