Convert the rate of 5 cm per second to meters per minute.
100 cm = one meter and
60 seconds = one minute
(1 point)
To convert the rate of 5 cm per second to meters per minute, we need to use the conversion factors:
1 meter = 100 cm
1 minute = 60 seconds
First, let's convert the rate from cm per second to meters per second. We divide the given rate by 100 cm/m to get the rate in meters:
5 cm/sec รท 100 cm/m = 0.05 m/sec
Now, let's convert the rate from meters per second to meters per minute. We multiply the rate by 60 sec/min to get the rate in meters:
0.05 m/sec * 60 sec/min = 3 m/min
Therefore, the rate of 5 cm per second is equivalent to 3 meters per minute.
To convert the rate of 5 cm per second to meters per minute, we need to use the conversion factors:
1 meter = 100 centimeters
1 minute = 60 seconds
First, let's convert the rate from centimeters to meters:
5 cm * (1 meter / 100 cm)
= 5/100 meters
= 0.05 meters
Next, let's convert the rate from seconds to minutes:
0.05 meters * (60 seconds / 1 minute)
= 0.05 * 60 meters/minute
= 3 meters/minute
Therefore, the rate of 5 cm per second is equivalent to 3 meters per minute.
To convert the rate of 5 cm per second to meters per minute, we need to use conversion factors.
First, we know that 100 cm is equal to 1 meter. So, we can convert cm to meters by dividing the value in cm by 100.
5 cm / 100 = 0.05 meters per second
Next, we need to convert seconds to minutes. We know that 60 seconds is equal to 1 minute, so we can convert seconds to minutes by dividing the value in seconds by 60.
0.05 meters per second / 60 = 0.00083333 meters per minute
Therefore, the rate of 5 cm per second is equivalent to approximately 0.00083333 meters per minute.
