Answer 1

Answer:

Speed of the parachutist is meters per second $2.083$ meter per second

Distance travelled in 2 seconds $4.167$ meter

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of the parachutist is kilometers per hour = 180

Speed of the parachutist is meters per second $\frac{180*1000}{24*60*60} = 2.083$ meter per second

Distance travelled in 2 seconds $2.083 *2 = 4.167$ meter
