I was going to watch it, but I got a call from my <a href="http://www.hostpph.com/gaming-software/sportsbook.aspx" rel="nofollow">sportsbook software providers</a> and I had to take care of the matter, but I watched the replay later, but I think it doesn't account to include me in the 111 million people, does it??MichaelWalkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04619211486010925064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5638300827372767452.post-40072975424985846812012-02-08T13:08:12.222-05:002012-02-08T13:08:12.222-05:00Great idea!

What acceleration measures is the time rate of change of velocity; that's how we get velocity units over time units. Ignore air resistance and imagine dropping a ball from a five-story window. Each second of fall, the speed increases by 32 ft/s (or 22 mph). It takes just about a second for an object in free fall to reach the speed limit in a school zone!John Eric Goffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16055443328349993690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5638300827372767452.post-74160043758782204252012-02-08T05:46:11.395-05:002012-02-08T05:46:11.395-05:00"it began accelerating to the turf at 32 feet..."it began accelerating to the turf at 32 feet per second per second (9.8 meters per second per second), which is about 22 mph per second."<br /><br />I believe you have one too many "per seconds" in there.
