Answer:
t = 0.051 seconds
Explanation:
Given that,
A skydiver jumped out of a plane and fell 9 miles to the ground. It means 9 miles is the distance covered.
The average speed of the skydiver is 174 miles/hour
We need to find the time for which he dive last. It means t is the time taken. Total distance covered divided by time taken is called average speed. So,
[tex]v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{9}{174}\\\\t=0.051\ s[/tex]
So, a skydiver dive for 0.051 seconds.
