Question

5. How many kilometers/hour is a wave traveling if its velocity is 55.523 meters/sec?

Answer 1

first we miltiply by the number of seconds on a hour(3600) to change the unitis to hours

$\begin{gathered} 55.523\times3600 \\ =199882.8 \end{gathered}$

so the velocity is 199882.8 meters/hour

now transform the meters on kilometers dividing between 1000

$\frac{199882.8}{1000}=199.8828$

the new velocity is 199.8828 kilometers/hour
