A parachutist's rate during a free fall reaches 99 miles per hour. 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, use the fact that 1 mile is equal to 5280 feet. Do not round your answers.

(99 miles/hour)*(5280 feet/mile)*(1 hour/60 min)*(1 min/60 sec) = 145.2  ft/sec

SO (145.2 ft/s)*(5s) = 726 ft = your answer
