how long does it take to travel one foot if traveling at 60mph?
------------------
A conversion method I remember is 15 mph = 22 ft/sec
60 mph = 88 ft/sec
1 foot will take 1/88 second = 0.011363636... seconds
Apx 11 milliseconds

60miles/hour * 5280 ft/mile
= 316800 feet/hour
= 316800 feet/hour * 1 hour/60minutes
= 5280 feet/minute
= 5280 feet/minute * 1 minute/60 seconds
= 88 feet/second (89 feet per second)
(dividing numerator and denominator by 88)
= 1 feet per 0.0114 seconds
.
It will take 0.0114 seconds to move one feet.
