if a baseball travels at 90mi/h, how many seconds does it take to travel 60 ft. show work.
------
time = distance/rate = 60ft/90m/h
----
rate = (90mi/h)
= [90*5280ft/3600sec)
----
= 132 ft/sec
=====================
time = distance/rate
time = 60ft/[132ft/sec]
time = (60/132)sec
time = 0.45455 sec to travel 60 ft.
=======================================
