Convert everything to one base unit (let's do ft/s in this case)
There are 660 ft in a furlong and 2 weeks or 1209600 seconds in a fortnight
Multiply 537,600furlong and 660 ft/furlong and divide by 1209600 to get 293.333ft/s

The race car is already in ft/s

There are 30.48 cm in 1 foot and 3600 seconds in 1 hour.  Multiply 9,000,000 by 1/30.48 and 1/3600 to get 82.02ft/s

THe peregrine falcon is the fastest

Explain why the coin is able to float on top of the water in this glass.
zubka84 [21]
Surface tension is the result of water molecules pulling inward with a strong attractive force. 
The attractive force brings the molecules on the surface of the water close together.
The attractive force causes the surface of the water to be drawn toward the water molecules beneath the surface. <span>
Since there are no water molecules above the surface, there are uneven forces. This causes surface tension, allowing the coin to float on the water’s surface.</span>

Kipish [7]
pV = nRT

p = nRT/V 

p= 1 x 0.08205 x 1000/ 2

p = 41.025 Pa  

Edit: The unit should be atm instead of Pa, as pointed out by a nice human being.
