a humming bird flaps its wings 5,000 times in a minute when hovering over a place. How many times will it flap its wing in 15 seconds

1 answer

To find out how many times the hummingbird will flap its wings in 15 seconds, we can first determine the number of flaps it makes in a second and then multiply it by 15.

In a minute, the hummingbird flaps its wings 5,000 times.
So in a second, it will flap its wings 5,000/60 = 83.33 times (approx).

Now we can calculate how many times it will flap its wings in 15 seconds:
83.33 flaps/second * 15 seconds = 1249.95 flaps (approx).

Therefore, the hummingbird will flap its wings approximately 1249 times in 15 seconds.
