In the 2009 movie Star Trek (Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoy Zaldana, Eric Bana), Sulu falls off of the drill platform without a parachute, and Kirk dives off the platform to save him. To slow his fall, Sulu uses a spread-eagle tactic, while Kirk keeps his body straight and arms at his side, to maximize his falling speed. If Sulu is falling at a rate of 180 ft/sec, while Kirk is falling at 250 ft/sec, how long would it take Kirk to reach Sulu, if it took Kirk a full 2 sec to react and dive after Sulu?
