Question

Convert a speed of 4.50 km/h to units of ft/min. (1.00 m = 3.28 ft).a. 165 ft/min.b. 82.3 ft/min.c. 886 ft/min.d. 246 ft/min.e. 0.246 ft/min.

Answer 1

246ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we are faced with unit conversion.

We are expected to convert from km/h to ft/min

Given that

1.00 m = 3.28 ft

1km(1000m)= 3280 ft

But we need to convert 4.5km to ft

Hence in ft 4.5km= 3280*4.5

= 14760ft

We now convert hour to minutes

60min make 1 hour

Therefore the convert form km/h to ft/min is

= 14760/60= 246ft/min

The answer is 246ft/min
