A hummingbird flaps it’s wings 5000 times a minute when hovering in place how many times will it flap it’s wings in 15 seconds

1 answer

To find out how many times the hummingbird will flap its wings in 15 seconds, we need to convert the 15-second timeframe to minutes and then multiply it by the number of wing flaps per minute.

There are 60 seconds in a minute, so:
15 seconds = 15/60 minutes = 0.25 minutes

Now, we can calculate the number of wing flaps:
Number of wing flaps = Wing flaps per minute * Time in minutes
Number of wing flaps = 5000 wing flaps/minute * 0.25 minutes
Number of wing flaps = 1250 wing flaps

Therefore, the hummingbird will flap its wings 1250 times in 15 seconds.
