Answer 1

To convert miles per hour (mph) to feet per second (ft/s), we can use the following conversions:

1. **Miles to feet**: There are 5,280 feet in a mile.
2. **Hours to seconds**: There are 3,600 seconds in an hour (60 seconds per minute and 60 minutes per hour).

Now, let's calculate the conversion step-by-step:

1. Start with the speed in miles per hour:
\[
35 \text{ mph}
\]

2. Convert miles to feet:
\[
35 \text{ miles/hour} \times 5280 \text{ feet/mile} = 184800 \text{ feet/hour}
\]

3. Convert hours to seconds:
\[
184800 \text{ feet/hour} \div 3600 \text{ seconds/hour} = 51.3333 \text{ feet/second}
\]

Thus, the final answer is:
\[
35 \text{ mph} = 51.3333 \text{ ft/s}
\]
