Relation between Frames per second and Speed of an object?

I have an iphone 5 and when recording I read that the fps is 30 fps. Now, based on that, If an object in a video starting from where it appears to where it can't be seen anymore is a time of 0.3 seconds, then the frames per second of that object is 0.3. So to find the speed of that object I divided 30 divided by 0.3 which gave me as an answer 100 feet per second which is 100fps which the speed of the object would be 109.728 km/h. Correct me if I'm wrong.

That does not compute. The video is 30 fps. So every object in the video is being recorded at 30 frames per second. In 0.3 seconds, you have recorded 9 frames. Nothing in there about "feet". How do you know it's not meters, or miles, or any other distance?

  • Would the police get involved for an expensive stolen object by a minor? My mom bought me glasses($400). They are "real" and the lenses are made to fit my eye vision. I'm in middle school and a high school boy who has a reputation for stealing things (ipods, iphones etc) stole my glasses while he was hanging out with me. Will the police be willing to get involved in this? I live in California. I really need them back, they're expensive and I can barely see anything during class… Or life

  • What happens if I use another object to open the card slot for iPhone 5? You know that they have that small thingy you use to open the card slot for iPhone 5? What if I use other objects to do the job? I've used paperclip, and the needle of a compass to do the job several times to change cards. Might it be dangerous? The last thing I want to happen is to damage my iPhone's card slot and therefore making it unable to open.
