I presume you mean 1 second after jumping from the plane. Since skydiver's fall, their velocity is generally in a downward direction, so the upward velocity is negative. The formula v = gt, where g is the acceleration due to gravity which is about 32.2 feet per second per second, tells us that after 1 second it would be about -32.2 feet per second.

How does velocity varies with the vertical distance traveled by the object?
When an object falls vertically downward, its velocity increases according to the following equation:2aS=vf2 - vi2 or ,2*10*S=v2, orv=(20S)1/2.There is a second case in which a body is thrown vertically upward, here its velocity decreases as it moves upward. Here its velocity becomes zero as it reaches the highest point
How long is a ballerina in the air if she leaps straight up with a speed of 1.0 meters per second?
The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 meters per second2 .She moves upward until her upward velocity shrinks to Zero = 1/9.8 second.She then begins to move downward, and waits another 1/9.8 second beforeher foot again touches the floor.She is a projectile in a ballistic trajectory for 2/9.8 = 0.204 second. (rounded)
How fast is a stone moving when it reaches a height of 11 meters if it is vertically thrown upward with a speed of 18 meters per second?
v2 = u2 + 2as where v = current velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, and s = displacement. Taking a = - 9.8 ms-2 v2 = 182 - (9.8 x 11 x 2) = 108.4 v = 10.4 ms-1
How do you convert metres per second to liters per second?
this cannot be answered metres per second is a velocity, units ms-1, litres per second is a volumetric flowrate, units dm3s-1 you would need the area through which the 'velocity' is flowing to answer that otherwise, litres is dm3 = m3 x 10-3
How do you find distance with velocity and time?
Well its easiest to think of this in context.If Al was to travel at 1 meter per second for one second, he would have traveled 1 meter.How did we come about this? We multiplied the velocity (1 m/s) by the time (1 sec.) to get 1 meter. The unit of seconds cancel out of the velocity leaving us just with the distance.So to answer your question with a direct formula would be as follows:d = v * t
What is a skydivers downwords velocity after 1 second when falling from a hovering helicopter?
Neglecting air resistance his velocity after 1 second will be 9.81 m/sec or 32.2 ft/sec.
When a ball is thrown vertically upward at initial velocity of 15 meter per second Find the position and velocity after 1.0 second and 40 second after leaving your hand?
1 sec : position = 10.1 metres above your hand, velocity = 5.2 ms^-1.40 sec : position = 7240 metres below your hand, velocity = 377 ms^-1 downwards.

What are the units for average velocity?
The S.I unit for velocity is meters per second (m s-1).
A banana is thrown straight out so it has both horizontal and vertical velocity After 1 second, what is its vertical velocity?
9.8
How can velocity be expressed in units?
metres per second ms-1
What is the unit of velocity in SI unit system?
meter/second or ms-1
When is acceleration neg?
Acceleration is negative if velocity is decreasing with time. Since velocity is a vector this can occur in one of two ways: 1) you are slowing down in the direction of motion and the velocity in that direction is defined as positive (this is what we usually mean by negative acceleration) 2) you are speeding up in the direction of motion and the velocity in that direction is defined as negative. An example of this is an object launched into the air which immediately starts to decelerate in it's upward velocity, reaches it's highest velocity, and then begins accelerating towards the ground. If we call the velocity upward a positive velocity, then when it starts falling, it has negative velocity. Note that acceleration (due to gravity) is negative the whole time.
What is the unit for measuring acceleration?
1 metre per second velocity increase, every second. > 1 (m/s) / s
What unit is used to express velocity?
meter's per second[ms-1]
