A humming bird flaps its wings at 5,000 times a minute when hovering in place how many times will it flap its wings in 15 seconds

Answer 1

To find out how many times the hummingbird flaps its wings in 15 seconds, we need to convert the flapping rate from minutes to seconds.

If the hummingbird flaps its wings 5,000 times in a minute, dividing by 60 seconds will give us the flapping rate in seconds.

Flapping rate in seconds = 5,000 flaps/minute ÷ 60 seconds/minute

Flapping rate in seconds = 83.33 flaps/second

Now, we can calculate how many times the hummingbird will flap its wings in 15 seconds by multiplying the flapping rate by 15.

Flaps in 15 seconds = 83.33 flaps/second × 15 seconds

Flaps in 15 seconds ≈ 1249.95 flaps

Therefore, the hummingbird will flap its wings approximately 1,249.95 times in 15 seconds.

Answer 3

Apologies for the confusion in my previous response. Let's recalculate:

If a hummingbird flaps its wings 5,000 times a minute when hovering in place, to find out how many times it will flap its wings in 15 seconds, we need to convert the rate from minutes to seconds.

Flapping rate in seconds = 5,000 flaps/ minute * (1 minute / 60 seconds)

Flapping rate in seconds ≈ 83.33 flaps/second.

Then, we can calculate the number of flaps in 15 seconds by multiplying the flapping rate by 15:

Flaps in 15 seconds = 83.33 flaps/second * 15 seconds

Flaps in 15 seconds ≈ 1249.95 flaps.

Therefore, the hummingbird will flap its wings approximately 1,249.95 times in 15 seconds.
