What is 32.2 ft per s2 converted to ft per s?

Answer 1

This is the standard expression for the ACCELERATION due to gravity.

Acceleration is the change in speed per second.

If there is no friction or air resistance then a body falling from rest will reach a speed of 32.2 fps after 1 second, after 2 secs it will be travelling at 64.4. fps, at 96.6 fps after 3 secs ....and so on.

In Mechanics there is an expression for motion involving constant acceleration :-

v = u + ft, where v = velocity after a period of time, u = initial velocity, f = acceleration and t = time.

In the question, after 3 seconds this formula would produce :-

v = 0 + 32.2 x 3 = 96.6 fps.

Answer 2

To convert acceleration from feet per second squared (ft/s^2) to feet per second (ft/s), you need to integrate the acceleration over time. In this case, if the acceleration is constant at 32.2 ft/s^2, the velocity can be found by multiplying the acceleration by time. Therefore, 32.2 ft/s^2 is equivalent to 32.2 ft/s.
