Question

If a driver looks down for just one second while driving 65 mph ,their vehicle has traveled almost 50 feet is it ?

Answer 1

The answer is : False. The vehicle has traveled 95 ft. per second.

We must convert 65 miles per hour to feet per second.

Given 1 Mile is 5280 feet

5280x65 = 343,200 feet per hour.

1 Hour = 60 minutes x 60 seconds = 3600 seconds

343,200/3600 = 95 ft.

The vehicle has actually traveled over 50 feet in one second, 95 ft.to be exact.
