A cart travels down a ramp at an average speed of 5.00 centimeters/second. What is the speed of the cart in miles/hour?
To solve this problem we have set the conversion values to determine the product during the conversion process.
1. 1
centimeter = 0.00000621371 mile
2. 1 hour = 60 minutes
3. 1 minute = 60 seconds
Thus, we shall have
1. 5 cm x 0.00000621371 mile/1cm = 0.000031069 mi
2. 0.000031069 seconds x 1 hr / 3600 = 0.111846815 miles / hr **

The speed of the cart, when converted from 5.00 cm/s to miles per hour, is approximately 0.1118 miles per hour. This conversion involves using appropriate unit factors for centimeters to miles and seconds to hours. Therefore, conversions between different units require careful multiplication and understanding of the relationship between them.
