Need a little Math Help

How much distance does a car going 141.5 mph cover in 2/10000 seconds or to be more exact 22/100000 seconds. We are trying to figure it out, but it's a little over our heads.

Im going with a un educated guess. .48 of a inch if your stating .0002 (2/10000)

I got 0.54 inches. Or basically 1/2 inch.

Capt, no beer that day, maybe that's the trouble. That is what Kevin lost by in Atlanta .0002. So somewhere between a tenth inch and a half inch. I have a comparison to that, but not here. Thanks guys.

Using the Kentucky wet finger in the air method I'm a going guess .4980792". I apologize that I was unable to get my shoes off (that Velcro is some tuff stuff) to give you a more accurate number!
