Solution

To convert the speed from miles per second to miles per minute, you need to multiply by the number of seconds in a minute. There are 60 seconds in a minute.

So, 22 miles/second * 60 seconds/minute = 1320 miles/minute.

To find out how many miles Venus will travel in 2 minutes at this speed, you multiply the speed by the time:

1320 miles/minute * 2 minutes = 2640 miles.

So, Venus will travel 2640 miles in 2 minutes at its current speed.
