A parachutist's rate during a free fall reaches 70 meters per second. What is this rate in feet per second? At this rate, how many feet will the parachutist fall during 5 seconds of free fall? In your computations, assume that 1 meter is equal to 3.3 feet. Do not round your answers.

rate: ? ft/s

distance fallen in 5 seconds?


Sagot :

Assuming 70 [tex] \frac{m}{s} [/tex] is terminal velocity

1 meter = 3.3 ft 

so 70 meters = 231 


231 [tex] \frac{ft.}{s} [/tex]


231 x 5 = 1155 ft.
