A parachutist’s speed during a free fall reaches 55 meters per second. What is the speed in feet per second? At this speed, how many feet will the parachutist fall during 10 seconds. In your computations, assume that 1 meter is equal to 3.3 feet. Do not round your answers

Respuesta :

The parachutist will fall 1815 feet during 10 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Speed of free fall = 55 meters per second

1 meter = 3.3 feet

55 meter = 3.3*55 = 181.5 feet

Speed of free fall in feet = 181.5 feet per second

For calculating the fall during 10 seconds, we will multiply the speed of one second with 10.

Distance in 10 seconds = 181.5*10 = 1815 feet

The parachutist will fall 1815 feet during 10 seconds.
