11,000 miles in 115 days.
..
1 mile = 5280 feet
11000 miles =
11000* 5280 feet
=58080000 feet
...
115 days
115 * 24 = 2760 hours
2760 * 60 = 165,600 minutes
..
feet /min = 58,080,000/165,600
= 350.72 feet/minute
..
sneeze speed = 110 mph
110 miles = 110 * 5280 =580,800 feet
1hour = 3600 seconds
..
feet/second = 580,800/3600
= 161.33 feet/second
