    X(3600s/1hr)^2=(1.38013017E+10in/hr^2)Conversion of 9.8m/s^2 to in/hr^2

    i got it. i goofed when i tried being slick and figured 3600s^2 = 60^2/hr^2

    X(3600s/1hr)^2=(1.38013017E+10in/hr^2)Conversion of 9.8m/s^2 to in/hr^2

    how to do the seconds can i do (385.8267717in/s^2) X (60s^2/1hr^2) = 1388976.378in/hr^2. this answer is not correct
