Jackrabbits are capable of reaching speeds up to 40 miles per hour. How fast is this in feet per second? (Round to the nearest whole number.)


5,280 feet = 1 mile



feet per second

Verified Answer :

calculista

we know that

\(1\ mile=5,280\ feet\)

\(1\ hour=3,600\ sec\)

1) convert miles per hour to feet per hour

\(40\ miles/hour=40*5,280=211,200\ feet/hour\)

2) convert feet per hour to feet per second

\(211,200\ feet/hour=211,200/3,600=58.67 feet/sec\)

Round to the nearest whole number-------> \(59 feet/sec\)

therefore

the answer is

\(59 feet/sec\)
