How long would it take to fall 6000 ft?

Well, roughly, it depends on weight, but not at first. Initially you fall at the acceleration of gravity at 32 feet per second per second. Velocity is acceleration x time and you reach a terminal velocity of about 110 mph depending on weight, or about 160 feet per second. Thus it takes 160/32= 5 seconds to reach that speed; then the sped is constant due to (drag) at 160 feet per second. You would have traveled s = 1/2 accel x time squared = 32/2 x 5x5 = 400 feet. You have 5600 feet to go and s = vt = 5600; t = 5600/160 = 35 seconds. Total time is 35 + 5 = 40 seconds


What is the velocity of a five kilogram rock when it strikes the surface of the moon after falling thirty-five feet?

distance = 1/2 gt^2 wher g is acceleration of gravity on moon = about 5 ft/sec/sec 35 = 2.5t^2 t^2 = 14 t = 3.74 seconds velocity = at = 5 x 3.74 = 18.7 feet/second the mass of the rock does not enter into this


What is the angular velocity of a 6 and ndashfoot pendulum that takes 3 seconds to complete an arc of 14.13 feet Use 3.14 for and pi.?

The whole point of a pendulum is that is swings back and forth. It does not travel at constant angular velocity: the angular velocity is zero at the two ends of its arc and it reaches a maximum when the pendulum is vertical. Consequently there cannot be a sensible answer to the question as asked.The average angular velocity, which is an entirely different measure, is 45 degrees per second.


How do you convert 300 feet per 2.92 seconds into miles per hour?

300 feet per 2.92 seconds = ~70.05 (70.0498132) mph

What is the velocity if you travel 882 ft in 5 seconds?

Assuming that you travel 882 feet in a straight line, the average velocity is 882.5 = 176.4 feet per second.


If toni walked 100 feet in 20 seconds how many did he walk in 25 seconds?

Velocity (or Speed) = Distance ÷ Time Toni's speed is therefore 100 ÷ 20 = 5 feet per second. Distance = Velocity x Time In 25 seconds, Toni walks, 5 x 25 = 125 feet.


How many seconds in 25ft?

This is not a valid conversion as seconds measure time and feet measure distance. To convert feet to seconds, you would need information about speed or velocity.


A rotating merry go round has a radius of 30 feet If it completes one revolution in 20 seconds find the velocity of the outer edge?

A rotating merry go round has a radius of 30 feet. If it completes one revolution in 20 seconds, find the velocity of the outer edge.


What is the velocity of a ball thrown upward at 16 feet and seconds?

The initial velocity of the ball is 16 feet per second when thrown upward. The velocity decreases as the ball travels upward due to gravity until it reaches its peak and starts to fall back down.


If a gun is fired straight upward and the bullet leaves the gun at 100ft per second after 2 seconds the velocity of the bullet is 36 feet per second what is the velocity after 3 seconds?

Since the bullet is fired straight upward, it will be decelerating due to gravity acting in the opposite direction of its initial velocity. Thus, at t = 3 seconds, the velocity will be less than 36ft per second but still positive (as it's moving upward). To calculate the exact velocity, you would need to use the kinematic equation for velocity in one dimension.


What is the velocity of a wave if the distance between the crest is 8 feet and 20 waves go by every 10 seconds?

The wavelength of the wave is 8 feet, and 20 waves pass by in 10 seconds. To find the velocity, calculate the distance traveled by 20 waves in 10 seconds, which is 20 waves * 8 feet = 160 feet. Then, divide the distance traveled by the time taken: 160 feet / 10 seconds = 16 feet per second.


A squirrel drops a nut over a cliff what is the velocity of the nut after 3 seconds?

Ignoring air resistance, the velocity of any object that goes off a cliff is 29.4 meters (96.5 feet) per second downward, after 3 seconds in free-fall.


What is the velocity of a ball in meters per second that drops from a roof and the speed was at 3.03 seconds?

If the ball was dropped from a roof and hit the ground 3.03 seconds later, then when it hit the groundits velocity was 29.694 meters (97.42 feet) per second (rounded) downward.


Find is the velocity in miles per hour of a mass that travels 50 feet in 20 seconds?

1.7 miles per hour.


How long will it take for a 200 lb man to fall 27000 feet?

Anything, regardless of weight, falls at 32 feet per second squared, until it reaches terminal velocity. Assuming no air resistance we need SQRT(27000/32) or 29.05 seconds to splat. However, Wikipedia puts the terminal velocity of a sky diver at 180.45 feet/second. That speed would be reached in about 6 seconds. 27000/180.45 = 149.63 seconds or 2 and a half minutes. So you're looking at 2 minutes 33 seconds +/- 3 seconds.


If rabbit is traveling at 4feet per second and is trying to get to a finish line 4620 feet away how long does it take him?

Velocity (Speed) = Distance ÷ Time, therefore Time = Distance ÷ Velocity. Time = 4620 ÷ 4 = 1155 seconds = 19 minutes 15 seconds
