Question

A parachutist's speed during a free fall reaches 50 meters per second. What is this speed in feet per second? At this speed, how many
feet will the parachutist fall during 10 seconds of free fall? In your computations, assume that 1 meter is equal to 3.3 feet. Do not round
your answers.

Distance fallen in 10 seconds:

Answer 1

50m ≅164 ft (3s.f.)

50m/s≅164 ft/s

distance after 20s:

d=164 ft/s ⋅20s

=3280ft
