Convert 32.2 ft s ^ ( - 2 ) in ...

Convert 32.2 ft ` s ^ ( - 2 ) ` in terms of ` ms ^( -2)`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

1 ft ` s ^ ( -2) = ( 1 ft ) /( 1 s ^ 2 ) " " ` i.e., ` 1 ft s ^( -2) = ( 0.3048 m s ^( -2) `
Hence ` 32.2 ft s ^( -2) = 32.2 xx 0.3048 ms ^( -2) = 9.808 ms ^( -2) = 9.81 ms ^( -2) `
