(1 point)
O 146 feet per minute
O 528,000 feet per minute
O 2,933 feet per minute
O 8,800 feet per minute

Answer 1

To find the speed in feet per minute, we need to convert miles to feet and hours to minutes.

100 miles/hour * 5,280 feet/mile = 528,000 feet/hour

Then, we convert hours to minutes:

528,000 feet/hour * 1 hour/60 minutes = 8,800 feet/minute

So, the speed of the pickleball is 8,800 feet per minute.

Therefore, the correct answer is option: O 8,800 feet per minute.
