Converting it over from 105.1mph to ft per sec is only about 154.15fps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the time by the acceleration due to gravity to find the velocity when the object hits the ground. If it takes 9.9 seconds for the object to hit the ground, its velocity is (1.01 s)*(9.8 m/s^2), or 9.9 m/s
