To convert 15 yards per second to feet per minute, we can use the following conversion factors:
1 yard = 3 feet
1 minute = 60 seconds
Now, we will perform the conversion step-by-step.
-
Convert yards to feet: \[ 15 \text{ yards} \times 3 \text{ feet/yard} = 45 \text{ feet} \]
-
Convert seconds to minutes: \[ 1 \text{ second} = \frac{1}{60} \text{ minutes} \]
Therefore, to convert to feet per minute, we multiply by 60: \[ 45 \text{ feet/second} \times 60 \text{ seconds/minute} = 2700 \text{ feet/minute} \]
So, \[ 15 \text{ yards/second} = 2700 \text{ feet/minute}. \]
