Answer:

32.2\frac{ft}{s^2}

Explanation:

To do this conversion we have to know that:

1ft=0.3048m

(It is easy to find this value on physics textbooks or internet physics webpages)

So, we should convert the gravitational acceleration in the next way:

9.81\frac{m}{s^{2}}=9.81\frac{m}{s^{2}}*\frac{1ft}{0.3048m}

So, the meters cancel out:

9.81\frac{m}{s^{2}}=9.81\frac{1}{s^{2}}*\frac{1ft}{0.3048}=32.18\frac{ft}{s^2}

9.81\frac{m}{s^{2}}=32.2\frac{ft}{s}

Kruka [31]
<span>Mitosis is a a means for cells to split and produce exact copies of themselves. The process produces two identical copies of the original cell and occurs throughout the human body. Mitosis is divided up into four main phases known as prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. The chromosomes first become visible in early prophase.</span>
