Write in miles per hour. Round to the nearest tenth.
211 ft/s
1 Mile = 5280 Feet
211/5280 = m/h
27.04
To convert 211 feet per second (ft/s) to miles per hour (mph), you can follow these steps:
Step 1: Convert feet to miles.
There are 5280 feet in a mile. So, divide 211 by 5280 to convert it to miles:
211 ft / 5280 = 0.04 miles
Step 2: Convert seconds to hours.
Since we want the answer in miles per hour, we need to convert seconds to hours. There are 3600 seconds in an hour. So, divide the number of seconds by 3600 to convert it to hours:
1 second / 3600 = 0.0002778 hours
Step 3: Divide miles by hours.
To get the final answer in miles per hour, divide the distance in miles by the time in hours:
0.04 miles ÷ 0.0002778 hours = 144 miles per hour (rounded to the nearest tenth).
Therefore, 211 ft/s is approximately equal to 144.0 mph when rounded to the nearest tenth.
