The cheetah is considered the fastest running animal in the world. Cheetahs can accelerate to a speed of 21.6 m/s in
2.50 s and can continue to accelerate to reach a top speed of 28.6 m/s. Assume the acceleration is constant until the
top speed is reached and is zero thereafter.
1) Express the cheetah's top speed in mi/h. (Express your answer to three significant figures.)
