How fast is a golf cart traveling 30 miles per hour in feet per second

Question

5280 feet = one mile
3600 seconds = one hour

Answer 1

To convert a speed of 30 miles per hour to feet per second, you can use the following conversion factors:

1. There are 5280 feet in one mile.
2. There are 3600 seconds in one hour.

To perform the conversion:

1. First, convert miles per hour to feet per hour: $$30\text{ miles/hour}\times 5280\text{ feet/mile}=158400\text{ feet/hour}$$

2. Next, convert feet per hour to feet per second: $$\frac{158400\text{ feet/hour}}{3600\text{ seconds/hour}}=44\text{ feet/second}$$

So, a golf cart traveling at 30 miles per hour is moving at 44 feet per second.
