In SI units, speeds are measured in meters per second (m/s). But, depending on where you live, you’re probably mole comfortable of thinking of speeds in terms of either kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles per hour (mi/h). In this problem, you will see that 1 m/s is roughly 4 km/h or 2 mi/h, which is handy to use when developing your physical Intuition. More precisely, show that (a) 1.0m/s=3.6km/h and 1.0m/s=2.2mi/h .

Suppose you went for a drive along a long, straight road that runs east-west. Let's define east to be the positive x direction. From your home, you drive east at 30. mi/hr to your friends house for 20. minutes, then at 48 mi/hr east for 10. minutes to the grocery store. Finally, you drive west at 60. mi/hr without stopping to get home. How many minutes will it take to drive from the grocery store to your home (at 60. mi/hr)? Note: Your answer should have the correct number of significant figures
