One of the fastest recorded speeds of a turtle while swimming is 9 m/s. Approximately, what is this speed in kilometers per hour? [1 kilometer = 1,000 meters] [1 hour = 60 minutes = 3,600 seconds]
32.4 km/h
2.5 km/h
6.48 km/h
150 km/h

Answer:

The correct option is:  32.4 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

The fastest recorded speed of a turtle while swimming is 9 m/s.

Now,  9 m/s [tex]=\frac{(9)meters}{(1)second}[/tex]

1 kilometer= 1000 meter

So, 1 meter [tex]= \frac{1}{1000}=0.001[/tex] kilometer

and 9 meters [tex]=(9*0.001)kilometer = 0.009[/tex] kilometer

Now, 1 hour = 3600 seconds

So, 1 second [tex]=\frac{1}{3600}hour[/tex]

Thus, we will get.........

[tex]\frac{(9)meters}{(1)second}=(\frac{0.009}{\frac{1}{3600}}) kilometer/hour =(0.009*3600)=32.4 km/h[/tex]

So, the speed of the turtle will be 32.4 km/h.
