As always, we're going to ignore air resistance, and treat the question purely with
the math of free fall under the influence of gravity near the earth's surface.
The general equation for the free fall distance in time 'T' is: D=1/2 G T2 .
In this case, D=1 inch or 1/12th foot. 'G' is the acceleration of gravity = 32.2 ft/sec2 .
1/12 = 1/2 (32.2) T2
T2 = 1/(6 x 32.2) = 1/193.2
T = 71.9 milliseconds (rounded)

What should 3 inch drain pipe drop per inch?
1/4 inch per foot.
How do i know how many inches i need to drop IN one linear foot to gain a four percent slope?

What is 1 psi converted into inches of water?
One psi (pounds per square inch) is 27.7 inches of water. An inch of water is a unit of pressure which will raise water one inch. A cubic inch of water weighs 0.0361 pounds, so one psi is one over 0.0361 or 27.7 inches of water.
How many gallons of water does a 84 inch by 84 inch hot tub hold?

What is the correct fall for 4inch drain pipes is it 1 inch or 2 inches per meter fall?
The correct fall for a 4 inch/100mm foul drain is 12.5mm per meter.. or 10mm per meter on a surface water drain
What causes your water pressure to drop significantly when more than one faucet is used?
This problem lies with your pipe sizes. If the pipes size of your main line does not equal the supply for demand this will result in the current problem. For example, if your whole house is fed with half inch piping and you open two taps the volume of water has to be shared from the half inch pipe, thus causing a drop in pressure. Whereas if one installed three quarter inch main line "t-ing" off to half inch, because the three quarter inch will hold a higher volume of water when two taps are opened and the water shared, the drop in pressure will be hardly noticeable.
How many gallons of water fall when one inch of rain falls on one arc of land?
One inch of rain falling on one acre of land is equivalent to approximately 27,154 gallons of water.
What is minimum fall for 4 inch soil pipe?
1/8 inch fall for every foot of run is the ICC code minimum, but I would prefer 1/4 inch fall.
What should 3 inch drain pipe drop per inch?

How do you put a 2 inch drop on a kia sportage?
You don't
If all the water vapor in the atmosphere were to condense and fall to the ground the globe would be covered with about how much water?
If all the water vapor in the Earth's atmosphere were to condense and fall to the ground, it would cover the globe with about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of water. This would equate to approximately 1/25th of an inch (1 mm) if evenly distributed over the entire surface of the Earth.
Water pressure from a gravity fed tank with a 200 foot evelvation drop?
~0.0361 PSI per inch of height 0.0361PSI * 12 inches * 200 Feet = 86.64PSI
