Calc Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken calcs, part 2

Calculations
Even more Ruby Gillman calcs, this time for speed!

1. Laser Eyes!
Grandmamah fires her 'lasers' (or really, electrically charged bioluminescence), which Ruby reacts to. It acts like a laser beam though, so that's a potential discussion. In anycase it's worth getting a minimum speed. Ruby is 300 feet tall (or 91.44m).
101 pixel = 91.44m
1 pixel = 91.44m/101 = 0.905346535m
Timeframe is 3 frames (with a framerate of 30 frames per second)

T = 1s/30 = 33.3333333ms X 3 = 99.9999999ms

0.905346535m X 441 = 399.257822m


T = 399.257822m/99.9999999ms
= 3992.57822/340.29
= Mach 11.7328697

2. Ruby swims away

After escaping the big pile of rocks on her, Ruby swims off at high speeds (calc is from the Reddit respect thread again).
430 pixels = 91.44m
1 pixel = 91.44m/430 = 0.212651163m

Timeframe is 5 frames (with a framerate of 30 frames per second).

T = 1s/30
= 33.3333333ms X 5
= 0.166666667s

0.212651163m X 640 = 136.096744m

T = 136.096744m/0.166666667s
= 816.580462/340.29
= Mach 2.39966047

Final Results
Grandmamah's laser eyes = Mach 11.733
Ruby swims away = Mach 2.4
