What is the area of a gym floor that is 122 ft and wide and 96 ft long?
The area if a rectangle = lengt*hightSo in this case: 122ft*96ft = 11 712 square feet ((ft)^2)
What is the distance from one corner to another in a rectangle 48 ft by 96 ft?
Imagine that, instead of a rectangle, you're just dealing with a triangle. One side of the triangle is 48ft and another side is 96ft. We just want to figure out the length of the third side, called the hypotenuse. |\ | \ A | \ C | \ |____\ B Side A is 96ft. Side B is 48ft. Side C is what we have to figure out. We can use the Pythagorean Theorem, which says that c^2 = a^2 + b^2. We know that: a^2 = a * a = 96 * 96 = 9216 b^2 = b * b = 48 * 48 = 2304 9216+2304 = 11,520 So we know that c^2 is 11,520. To find out c, we take the square root of that number, which gives us 107.33. So the answer to your question is 107.33 ft!
A falling stone travel the same speed each second it falls?
A falling stone will increase in speed until it reaches it's terminal velocity, the speed when the downward force of gravity equals the upward force of drag, which causes the net force on the stone to equal zero, thus achieving an acceleration of zero. If atmosphere is ignored, a falling body will accelerate at 32ft/s (9.75m/s). The distance traveled in the first second would be 16 feet (4.87m), in the second second: 48 feet (14.63m) and in the third second: 80 feet (24.38m); hence after three seconds an object would have fallen 144 feet (43.89 meters) and is traveling at 96ft/s (29.26m/s).
