Problem \"Airplane\",falling down at 600mph vertically, from 29000ft in the sky
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Convert 600 mph to ft/sec, (3600 sec in 1 hr)
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28600%2A5280%29%2F3600\" = 880 ft/sec
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find the time to travel 29000 ft at this speed; (time = dist/speed)
\n" ); document.write( "\"29000%2F880\" ~ 33 seconds, just long enough to realize what's going on, scary!
\n" ); document.write( "
