A parachutist's rate during a free fall reaches 225 kilometers per hour. What is this rate in meters per second? At this rate, how many meters will the parachutist fall during 15 seconds of free fall?

Respuesta :

Answer:

  • 62.5 m/s
  • 937.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

  1 km/h = (1000 m)/(3600 s) = 1/3.6 m/s

Then

  225 km/h = 225(1/3.6) m/s = 62.5 m/s

In 15 seconds, that's ...

  (15 s)(62.5 m/s) = 937.5 m

Answer:

62.5

and

937.5
