Question 789764
Convert Nolan Ryan's record fastest pitching speed of 108.1 mph into feet per second. ( hint you will need two conversions factors for this ; there are 5280 feet in a mile
-------
108.1 (miles/hour)(1 hour/3600 seconds)(5280 ft/1 mile)
-----
= (108.1*1*5280)/(1*3600*1)(ft/sec)
= 158.55 ft/second
