Question: If a baseball is going $90$ nmils per hour how long is that in meters and seconds
1. **State the problem:** Convert a speed of $90$ nmils per hour to meters per second.
2. **Understand the units:**
- $1$ nautical mile (nmil) = $1852$ meters.
- $1$ hour = $3600$ seconds.
3. **Formula for conversion:**
$$\text{speed in m/s} = \text{speed in nmil/hr} \times \frac{1852 \text{ meters}}{1 \text{ nmil}} \times \frac{1 \text{ hour}}{3600 \text{ seconds}}$$
4. **Apply the values:**
$$90 \times \frac{1852}{3600}$$
5. **Calculate intermediate step:**
$$90 \times \frac{1852}{3600} = 90 \times \frac{\cancel{1852}}{\cancel{3600}}$$
6. **Simplify fraction:**
Calculate $\frac{1852}{3600} \approx 0.5144$
7. **Final calculation:**
$$90 \times 0.5144 = 46.296$$
8. **Answer:**
The speed is approximately $46.3$ meters per second.
