How do I convert kilometers per hour?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You didn't actually say what you wanted to convert the "kilometers per hour" to, but let's take a wild guess and say you wanted to convert them to MPH. The fastest calculation you can easily make in your head is multiply by 5, and then divide the result by 8. (It's a 1.6 ratio, give or take) So if I wanted to convert 80 kilometers per hour, I'd multiply that number by 5 to get 400, and divide by 8 to get 50MPH. Try converting 88 kilometers per hour and see if you can get it done in your head. :)

Do airplanes flying different directions fly at different altitudes?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes. The rule is East-Odd and West-Even. This means that if youre flying any heading on the east side of the compass, you are supposed to cruise at an altitude that is odd-thousands plus 500 feet. 3,500 feet, 5,500 feet, 7,500 feet etc. And if youre flying any heading on the west side of the compass even thousands plus 500.... 4,500, 6,500, 8,500 and so on. The idea being that two airplanes approaching head on (which is the hardest to spot) will always be separated by 1000 feet of altitude even if they are not communicating with ATC or each other.

In areas or flight conditions where aircraft are flying under the control of a tower or other air-traffic controllers, it is ATC's duty to keep aircraft separated, ATC will try to use the East-odd West-even rule when it is suitable, but is not bound by it by any means.

Lines of latitude run?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Latitude lines run horizontally east and west at different distances from the equator and are called parallels, probably because they circle the earth at a constant distance from each other. We sometimes refer to certain areas by latitude as parallels. For example, A military boundary between North Korea and South Korea was set at the 38th parallel. Most of the boundary between the United States and (British) Canada was set at the 49th parallel.

longitude lines run north-south and are furthest from each other at the equator and come togegther at the poles.

What is a preloaded GPS?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

ANSWER: "Preloaded GPS" often refers to the memory of a GPS device (either built in flash memory or a removable memory card) having maps for a given country or region. For example a North American preloaded GPS device likely has maps for Canada, USA and Mexico. It is up to the company creating the GPS device ultimately, and do a bit of research for a GPS device's choice of maps before deciding on a unit. A GPS web forum or the manufacturer's website would be excellent resources to help ensure you get what you are looking for out of your GPS purchase.
