Meteortites typically travel between 12 and 25 miles per second.
Convert this range to miles per hour.


Also convert it to meters per second.




In the 1930's, people thought the fastest bullet that would ever be shot came from a .22 caliber gun, at 4000 ft/sec.  Bigger bullets, like the ones that come out of a .30/06, are going slower, at around 2700 ft/sec.  Since then, scientists have found a "speed limit" for chemical driven bullets:  6000 ft/sec.
 Convert the three speeds mentioned into miles per hour.


Also convert them to meters per second.



Scientists  have created  a gun that  uses magnets to shoot  projectiles at 20 kilometers per second.
Convert this speed to  miles/hour.


Also convert it  to Km/Hr.



The speed of light is 300000000meters/sec.
Convert this to miles/hour.



Blood traveling through your aorta moves about .4meters/sec.  
Convert to ft/sec.


Also convert to mi/hr.
