If a object is moving at speeds of up to 3 times 10 to the seventh meters per second, how many miles per hour would it be moving?

It's from the movie the day the earth stood still, a group of scientists were told that UFO was heading towards earth, the man in charge of the briefing said that it was traveling at the speed mentioned above.



0.000621371192 * 3600 = 2.2369362912

2.2369362912 * 3 * 10^7 = 67108088.736 mph (approx. 6.711 * 10^7)

or just divide light speed by 10 (an approximation)

This is around 1/10 light speed.
