How long would it take an impulse to travel from the top of a 5-foot person's body to the bottom of their feet?

Answer :

Answer:

Total time taken = 0.01524 seconds

Explanation:

Given:

Distance travel by impulse = 5 feet

Assume;

Speed of impulse = 100 m/s

Find:

Total time taken

Computation:

1 feet = 0.3048 meter

Distance travel by impulse = 5 feet = 5[0.3048] = 1.524 meter

Total time taken = Distance travel by impulse / Speed of impulse

Total time taken = 1.524 / 100

Total time taken = 0.01524 seconds

The total time taken for an impulse to travel from the top of a 5-foot person's

body to the bottom of their feet is 0.01524 seconds.

We were given distance travel by impulse as 5 feet

We can assume the speed of impulse to be 100 m/s

Speed= distance/time

Time= Distance/Speed

1 feet = 0.3048 meter

Distance travel by impulse = 5 feet = 5[0.3048] = 1.524m

Total time = Distance traveled by impulse / Speed of impulse

Total time = 1.524 / 100

Total time = 0.01524 seconds.
