Answer:
6 mps to the nearest mps.
Step-by-step explanation
The rocket that carried the Curiosity Rover to Mars traveled at a speed of 21,000 miles per hour. What is this speed to the nearest mile per second?
1 hr = 3600 sec
Since an hour is 3600 seconds (i.e., 60 x 60), you simply need to divide that number by 3600
→ 21000 mph = 21000 ÷ 3600 mps = 5 5/6 mps →
ANSWER : 6 mps to the nearest mps.
