Question

A car travels 60.0 miles per hour. What is its velocity in m/s? (1 km = 0.621 mi). . A] 0.01 m/s. .B] 0.03 m/s. .C] 9.66 m/s. . D] 26.8 m/s

Answer 1

`v = 26.8 m/s`

so the speed in SI unit will be 26.8 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

speed of the car is given as

`v = 60 miles/hour`

so we will have

`1 miles = 1609 meter`

`1 hour = 3600 s`

now we know that

`v = 60 ((miles)/(hour)) * ((1609 m)/(1 mile))* ((1 hour)/(3600 s))`

`v = 26.8 m/s`

so the speed in SI unit will be 26.8 m/s

Answer 2

by converting miles in to meter
60 miles=96560 meter
1 hour = 3600 seconds
velocity= 96560m/3600s
Velocity= 26.8 m/s
