Convert to find the equivalent rate of 780 cm/min in mm/s.

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are converting from centimeters per minute to millimeters per second. . There are10 millimeters in1 centimeter.
3. There are60 seconds in1 minute.

STEP 2

First, we need to convert the numerator (centimeters) to millimeters. We can do this by multiplying the given value by the conversion factor.
780 cm=780 cm×10 mm/cm780 \text{ cm} =780 \text{ cm} \times10 \text{ mm/cm}

STEP 3

Calculate the equivalent value in millimeters.
780 cm=7800 mm780 \text{ cm} =7800 \text{ mm}

STEP 4

Next, we need to convert the denominator (minutes) to seconds. We can do this by dividing the given value by the conversion factor.
1 minute=1 minute/60 seconds/minute1 \text{ minute} =1 \text{ minute} /60 \text{ seconds/minute}

STEP 5

Calculate the equivalent value in seconds.
1 minute=0.0166667 seconds1 \text{ minute} =0.0166667 \text{ seconds}

STEP 6

Now, we can find the equivalent rate in millimeters per second by dividing the equivalent value in millimeters by the equivalent value in seconds.
7800 mm0.016666 seconds\frac{7800 \text{ mm}}{0.016666 \text{ seconds}}

STEP 7

Calculate the equivalent rate in millimeters per second.
7800 mm0.0166667 seconds=468000 mm/second\frac{7800 \text{ mm}}{0.0166667 \text{ seconds}} =468000 \text{ mm/second}The equivalent rate is468000 millimeters per second.
