A parachutist's rate during a free fall reaches 45 meters per second. What is this rate in feet per second? At this rate, how ma
ny feet will the parachutist fall during 15 seconds of free fall? In your computations, assume that 1 meter is equal to 3.3 feet. Do not round your answers.
198 feet..........1 meter <span>------------- X-------------- </span> <span>1 second.......3.3 feet </span>
<span>198 </span> <span>----- meters per second </span> <span>3.3 </span>
<span>60 meters per second.......ANSWER </span>
<span>60 m/sec X 15 sec = 900 feet.......ANSWER </span>

<span>I tutor free online since moving to France from Florida in June 2011. </span> <span>I still tutor by skype to students in Florida and starting to gain more world-wide. </span> <span>Hope this is most helpful and you will continue to allow me to tutor you. </span> <span>If you dont fully understand or have a question PLEASE let me know </span> <span>how to contact you so you can then contact me directly with any math questions. </span> <span>If you need me for future tutoring I am not allowed to give out my </span> <span>info but what you tell me on ***how to contact you*** is up to you </span> <span>Been a pleasure to serve you Please call again </span> <span>Robert Jones.............f </span> <span>"Teacher/Tutor of Fine Students" </span> <span>A PRESENT FOR YOU </span> <span>Ask someone to write a number, say a five-digit number. </span> <span>(Can be a 2-digit.....3-digit.....4-digit....ect..... </span> <span>Suppose the number written is </span> <span>57836 </span> <span>Now, without showing the asker, you write a number on </span> <span>a sheet of paper and keep it folded. You have to write the </span> <span>number by subtracting 2 from the above number and </span> <span>adding 2 in front which will be.... </span> <span>257834 </span> <span>Next, ask the person to write another five-digit number </span> <span>below his original number. Suppose he writes 37589. </span> <span>So you now have... </span> <span>57836 </span> <span>37589 </span> <span>Now you write a five-digit number below it in such a </span> <span>way that each digit is 9 minus digit above. You now have... </span> <span>57836 </span> <span>37589 </span> <span>62410 </span> <span>Ask the person to add one more 5-digit number. If he </span> <span>adds 54732, you add below it 45267. Note that you decided </span> <span>the number by subtracting each of his digit from 9. </span> <span>Thus, you now have..... </span> <span>57836 </span> <span>37589 </span> <span>62410 </span> <span>54732 </span> <span>45267 </span> <span>Next, ask him to add all the number and he gets 257834 </span> <span>Show him the number which you had written as an answer </span> <span>to this addition earlier in the folded paper and surprise him.</span>
