Aparachutists rate during a free fall reaches 153 miles per hour. what is this rate in feet per second? at this rate, how many will the parachutists fall during 15 seconds of free fall

Step-by-step explanation:

A parachutists rate during a free fall reaches 153 miles per hour. To determine the rate in feets per second, we will convert hours to seconds. We will also convert the miles to feet.

1 hour = 60 × 60 = 3600 seconds.

1 mile = 5280 feets

Therefore, it will become

(153 × 5280) / 1× 3600

= 807840 /3600

= 224.4 feets per second

153 miles per hour = 224.4 feets per second

At this rate, the number of feets that the parachutists will fall during 15 seconds of free fall will be

speed × time = 224.4 × 15 = 3366 feets

18.75 gallons
