Convert mile / square minute to inch / square second

Learn how to convert 1 mile / square minute to inch / square second step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (\frac{m i l e}{s q u a r e m i n u t e}) = x (\frac{i n c h}{s q u a r e s e c o n d})

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d})

Left side: 1.0 (\frac{m i l e}{s q u a r e m i n u t e}) = \frac{1609.344}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d}) = \frac{1609.344}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{i n c h}{s q u a r e s e c o n d}) = 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d}) = 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (\frac{m i l e}{s q u a r e m i n u t e}) = x (\frac{i n c h}{s q u a r e s e c o n d})

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{1609.344}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \times (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d}) = x \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d})

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{1609.344}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \cdot (\frac{m}{s^{2}}) = x \cdot 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{1609.344}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \cdot (\frac{m}{s^{2}}) = x \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Conversion Equation

\frac{1609.344}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} = x \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2}

Switch sides

x \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} = \frac{1609.344}{3.6 \times 10^{3}}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}})

x \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}} = \frac{1609.344}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \times \frac{1.0}{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}}

Cancel

x \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}} = \frac{1609.344 \times 1.0}{3.6 \times {10^{3}}^{10} \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2}}

Simplify

x = \frac{1609.344}{3.6 \times 10.0 \times 2.54}

Solve

x

x = 17.6

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{m i l e}{s q u a r e m i n u t e}) = 17.6 (\frac{i n c h}{s q u a r e s e c o n d})
