In order to find the number of hours it takes to do the full rotation we separate into pieces the days, hours, and minutes and convert each of them separately.

using the conversion factor from days to hours we get that

1\text{day}=24\text{hours}

then we get that

38\text{days}\cdot\frac{24\text{hours}}{1day}=912hours

hours does not need a conversion factor, meaning that

10\text{hours}=10\text{hours}

continue by converting the minutes using the following conversion factor

1\text{hour}=60\min

then,

30\min \cdot\frac{1\text{hour}}{60\min }=0.5\text{hours}

To complete add all the results together

\begin{gathered} 912+10+0.5 \\ 922.5\text{hours} \end{gathered}

It takes mercury 922.5 hours to complete a full rotation.

b) 540 mph

c) speed of the​ wind = 49.1 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that flight between Joppetown and Jawsburgh took 5 hours and 30 minutes.

Speed = 490.91 mph

The return flight took 5 hours of the same distance from = 2700 ​miles

Speed = 2700/5 = 540 mph

speed of the​ wind = the difference in the two speed

speed of the​ wind = 450 - 490.91

speed of the​ wind = 49.1 mph

Speed = 540m/s
