Use dimensional to change
A.50 Meters per second to Kilometer per hour?
(50 meter/sec)(kilometer/1000 meters)(3600 sec/1 hour)
= [50*1*3600/1*10000*1] kilometers/hour
= 180000/10000 km/hr
= 18 km/hr
---------------------
B.0.025 day to second?
0.025 days(24 hrs./day)(3600 sec/hr)
= (0.025*24 *3600/1*1*1) seconds
= 2160 seconds
---------------------
C.1200 Ounces to tons (16 oz = 1 lb;2000 = 1 ton).
1200 ounces (1 lb/16 oz)(1 ton/2000 lbs)
= [1200*1*1/16*2000] tons
= 0.003813 tons
