Speed = (distance) / (time) = 33/5 = 6.6 feet per second
98 meters (322 feet) per second.
The speed of a falling object keeps changing as it falls. If an object falls 250 feet to the ground and there is no air, then it takes about 4 seconds to fall, and it hits the ground at about 86.5 miles per hour (127 fps). If the object falls through air, then the speed it picks up depends on its weight and shape ... a sailplane falls slower through air than a rock does, but take away the air, and a rock and a feather fall together.
Surely you're aware that a falling object accelerates under the influence of gravity. That acceleration manifests itself in the form of steadily-increasing speed, so the time required to fall 186 feet depends on how long it has already been falling. -- Immediately after it's dropped, the object falls the first 186 feet in 3.399 seconds. -- It falls the NEXT 186 feet in 1.408 seconds. -- It falls the next 186 feet in 1.08 seconds. -- It falls the next 186 feet in 0.911 second. -- It falls the next 186 feet in 0.802 second. . . etc.
Distance divided by the time it takes to cover the distance, equals average speed per unit of time. For example: An object takes 0.5 seconds to cover 1 foot. 1 divided by 0.5 equals 2 (1/0.5=2) so it is traveling at an average speed of 2 feet per second.
600 feet.
I assume the object starts from rest. The speed will be 16*3 which is 48m/s
98 meters (322 feet) per second.
100 feet in 10 seconds gives an average speed of 10 feet per second.
20 feet per second. Divide the distance travelled by the time taken - so 180 / 9 = 20
that depends on the weight of the object
At 30 mph, an object travels about 102.66 feet in two seconds.
Acceleration of gravity near the surface of the earth is 9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second2. Downward velocity after 2 seconds = 19.2 meters (64.4 feet) per second.
Acceleration and velocityVelocity - which is not quite the same thing as speed -- is the measure of the rate of change in position. In other words, to calculate velocity, we divide the change in an object's displacement -- how far it moved -- by the time it took to move. If an object moves, say, 100 feet in 10 seconds, its velocity is 100/10 = 10 feet per second (ft/s). Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. If an object increases its speed from, say, 10 ft/s to 60 ft/s in five seconds, its acceleration is 10 feet per second per second, or 10 feet per second squared (ft/s2).How did we arrive at that figure? Divide the change in velocity by the change in time. The change in velocity is 60 - 10 = 50 ft/s. The change in time is 5 - 0 = 5 s. Hence, 50/5 = 10 ft/s2.
-- Acceleration of gravity, on or near Earth, is 9.8 meters ( 32.2 feet) per second2.-- Speed, neglecting the effects of air resistance, is9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per secondmultiplied by(number of seconds since the object was dropped)regardless of the mass, weight, or size of the object.
40 feet in 0.5 seconds = 80 feet in 1 sec ie 80 fps
315 feet in 9 seconds = about 35 feet per second.
If an object is moving 18 feet in 2 seconds, then it is moving 64,800 (18 times 60 times 60) feet in one hour. That is 12.3(64,800 divided by 5,280) miles per hour.
