Whenever Jean sees the white streaks left in the sky by an airplane, she excitedly tells her kids it's Buzz Lightyear. One day, her son asked her how fast Buzz could fly. Jean, knowing that Buzz is really an airplane, told him about 500 miles per hour. How many feet per second can Buzz travel? Show your work, friends.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The Buzz can travel 733.33 feet per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

An hour has 60 minutes, each of which has 60 seconds. So one hour has 60*60 = 3600 seconds.

The airplane can fly 500 miles per hour. Each mile has 5280 feet. So the plane can fly 500*5280 = 2640000 feet in one hour.

Per second, we have:

The Buzz can travel 733.33 feet per second.
