To answer this, we need to use unit analysis (a.k.a. dimensional analysis, Factor-Label Method, or the Unit Factor Method) to convert miles to feet and hours to seconds.

Essentially what we're doing is multiplying 62 miles/hour by a value equal to 1, like 60 seconds/1 minute (since 60 seconds and 1 minute express the same time period, the fraction is equal to 1) expressed in the right units to convert the expression to the units we want.

62 mi/hr * (5280 ft/1 mi) * (1 hr/60 min) * (1 min/60 sec)=

(62*5280)/(60*60) ft/sec=

90.9333... ft/sec, or about 91 feet per second.

How many feet will you travel going 50 miles per hour?

50 miles per hour is 50 * 5280 (feet per mile) per hour = 264000 feet per hour and then, depending on how long a time period you're interested in...you could just divide the 264000 feet per hour by 60 to find the distance in feet per minute...then divide that again by 60 to find the distance in feet per second. A car will travel 264000 feet per hour at 50 mph. 264000 feet per hour / 60 minutes per hour = 4400 feet per minute 264000 feet per hour / 3600 seconds per hour = 73.33 feet per second


How many feet would you travel in 2 seconds going 60 miles an hour?

60 miles per hour is 88 feet per second, so at 60 miles per hour you would travel 176 feet in two seconds.One mile is 5280 feet. One second is one 3600th of an hour. Therefore, one mile per hour is 5280 divided by 3600, or 1.4667 feet per second. Multiply that by 60 and then by 2, and you get 176 feet per two seconds at 60 miles per hour.
