A parachutist's speed during a free fall reaches 65 meters per second. What is this speed in feet per second? At this speed, how many feet will the parachutist fall during 5 seconds of free fall? In your computations, assume that 1 meter is equal to 3.3 feet.

Speed    =   ? ft/s
Distance fallen in 5 secondss    =  ? ft

sorrry i fixed it

anonymous · Answer

without doing any math the first thing that comes in mind to me is
32 ft/s=9.8m/s
the constants for gravity on earth

@Nurali i fixed it now

anonymous · Answer

is it 
Speed = 19/69
Distance = 98.45

19.69^

anonymous · Answer

no you want to multiply. not divide

anonymous · Answer

are you supposed to consider the force of gravity at each second. which would be 32 ft/s. or just 
$$d=vt$$

anonymous · Answer

unless you are supposed to assume he is at terminal velocity at this speed
