a speed of 65 miles per hour is equal to how many m/s? show your work for credit.

Explanation:

Step1: Convert miles to meters

1 mile = 1609.34 meters, so 65 miles = 65×1609.34 meters. $65\times1609.34 = 104607.1$ meters

Step2: Convert hours to seconds

1 hour = 3600 seconds.

Step3: Calculate speed in m/s

Speed in m/s = $\frac{\text{distance in meters}}{\text{time in seconds}}$. $\frac{104607.1}{3600}\approx29.06$ m/s

Answer:

29.06 m/s
