1 mile = 5290 ft
1 hr = 3600 sec
→ 1 mph = 1 mile every hour
= 5280 ft every 3600 seconds
= 5280 ÷ 3600 ft every second
= 22/15 ft per sec
= 17/15 ft/s
≈ 1.47 ft/s
10.22 seconds.
The maximum speed of a SR71 is 2,200 mph at 80,000 ft.
12.3 seconds.
60 mph is 88 feet per second. 40 ft / 88 ft/s = ~.45 seconds
If you can commit some relationships to memory, it helps. This is one: 60 mph = 88 ft per sec. Divide both sides by 10 --> 6 mph = 8.8 ft per sec. So (600 ft)/(8.8 ft/sec) = 68.182 sec, or 1 minute, 8.182 seconds.
207 mph
aprox. 3 mph
60 mph
60 mph = 60*5280/3600 = 88 ft per second. To travel 43 ft at 88 ft per second takes 43/88 = 0.4886363... seconds - or just under half a second.
Yes. 20 ft/s is approx 13.6 mph. A marble in my pocket when I'm cycling can be going at speeds up to around 35 mph (or about 51 ft/s). A marble in a car can be going twice this at about 100 ft/s.
If the rate of acceleration is constant, the average speed over the two feet is 187.5 mph (half of 375 mph). 187.5 mi/h x 5280 ft/mi ÷ 3600 sec/h = 275 ft/sec At that speed, the time it takes to go 2 ft. is (1 sec)/(275 ft) x 2 ft or about 7.27 ms (milliseconds).
about 70-80 mph
