Answer 1

To convert miles per hour to feet per minute, you need to convert both the distance from miles to feet and the time from hours to minutes.

Given:
1 mile = 5,280 feet
1 hour = 60 minutes

First, let's convert the speed from miles per hour to feet per hour:
100 miles/hour * 5,280 feet/mile = 528,000 feet/hour

Now, let's convert feet per hour to feet per minute:
528,000 feet/hour / 60 minutes/hour = 8,800 feet/minute

So the pickleball moves at a speed of 8,800 feet per minute.
