Marisa was tracking the diving speed of a bird. The average speed was 108 miles per hour. That means in one hour, the bird would travel 108 miles at that speed. However, these dives last far less than an hour, so Marisa needs to convert this to feet per second

By a change of units, we will get that 108 mi/h = 158.4 ft/s

Here we want to transform 108 mi/h to feet per second.

Then we will use two relations:

  • 1 mi = 5,280 ft
  • 1 h = 3,600 s

Then we can just transform as:

108mi/h = (108*5,280 ft)/h = 570,240 ft/h

570,240 ft/h = 570,240 ft/(3,600 s) = 158.4 ft/s

So we have:

108 mi/h = 158.4 ft/s
