The formula for speed is: Speed = distance/time.


In order to solve this problem, you must first convert 10 min to hours.


10 min x 1h/60min = 1/6 h.


Then rearrange the formula for speed by multiplying both sides of the equation times time, isolating distance. Then plug in the known variables and solve for distance.


Speed x time = distance


3 mph x 1/6 h = 1/2 mi

How many small human intestions does it take to rap around the earth?

# The human small intestine has three parts; the duodenum, the jejuneum, and the ileum. Since the duodenum is about a foot long, the jejunem is about 6 feet long, and the ileum is about 9 feet long, that makes the small intestine about 16 feet long. Since the duodenum is about a foot long, the jejunem is about 6 feet long, and the ileum is about 9 feet long, that make the small intestine about 16 feet long. That would mean that there are about 88 small intestines in every miles. Then id we multiply that by the earth's circumference of about 24900 miles, that means that there would need to be about 2.2 million human small intestines lined up end to end to reach all the way around the world.


How long will it take to travel a mile at 1000 mph?

Roughly 10750 years. (: It depends on how fast you are traveling. At the speed of light, it would take one year to travel a distance equal to one light year. The speed of light is about 186,282 miles per second. This works out to over 670 million miles per hour and about 5.87 trillion miles per year. So a distance of one light year is equal to a distance of about 5.87 trillion miles. At the speed of an interplanetary space probe traveling at a velocity of 40,000 miles per hour, it would take 16,765 years to travel one light year. The nearest star besides our sun, Proxima Centauri, is about 4.3 light years away. At a speed of 40,000 miles per hour, the velocity of our interplanetary space probe, it would take a little over 73,000 years to reach Proxima Centauri.
