Who is at fault in Washington state where a vehicle is backing out and is almost completely out when another car hit the car backing?

Fault here would likely be shared. On the one hand, the driver backing really has no legal right to the lane they are backing into - you cannot cut someone off while you are backing up. But it seems you have described a situation in which the individual backing was well into the backing process when someone came along, from quite a distance, and hit them. Hence the driver in the lane already probably had the last clear chance to avoid the accident but chose not to and would hence bear the majority of the fault.

About how many feet will the average driver going 50 mph travel from the moment he sees danger until he hits the brake?

Accident reconstruction experts routinely testify that the perception + reaction time for people is about 1.5 seconds. Perception + reaction is the time it takes from when a person perceives an event that requires action to the time they take that action -- hitting the brakes in this case.

A car going 50 mph is going 73.33 feet per second. So, 73.33 * 1.5 seconds = 110 feet.

That would depend on how many vehicles are involved. If only two vehicles are involved, and they both stop after the crash, then there is one collision

The car itself hitting the other car; your body hitting the dash or other part of the car depending on where you're sitting; and finally the collision that is inside the body, your organs and bones hitting against the inside of your body.
