i need some help on a problem... does anyone know how to convert 65mph into ft/s and km/h? i would appreciate it THANKS! =)
First you need to know how many feet are in a mile.emma123 said:i need some help on a problem... does anyone know how to convert 65mph into ft/s and km/h? i would appreciate it THANKS! =)

You should learn about significant figures.emma123 said:when i convert 65 mph into ft/s is it 95.33 ft/s and and when converting 65mph into km/h is it 104.60736 km/h?
To convert from miles per hour to feet per second, you can use the conversion factor of 1 mile = 5280 feet and 1 hour = 3600 seconds. Therefore, 65 miles per hour is equal to (65 miles / 1 hour) * (5280 feet / 1 mile) * (1 hour / 3600 seconds) = 95.33 feet per second.
To convert from miles per hour to kilometers per hour, you can use the conversion factor of 1 mile = 1.60934 kilometers. Therefore, 65 miles per hour is equal to (65 miles / 1 hour) * (1.60934 kilometers / 1 mile) = 104.61 kilometers per hour.
Knowing the conversion between miles per hour and feet per second can be useful in various situations, such as calculating the speed of a moving object or converting units in a physics problem. It can also help you understand the relationship between different units of measurement.
Yes, you can use online unit converters or smartphone apps to quickly convert between different units of measurement, including miles per hour, feet per second, and kilometers per hour. These tools can save you time and effort compared to manually calculating the conversions.
The conversions between these units of measurement are accurate, as they are based on standardized conversion factors. However, it's important to note that there may be slight variations due to rounding off numbers or using different conversion factors in certain contexts.
