It will take 6.25 seconds for the dino to reach 25 m/s and the human would have traveled 37.5 meters and the dino would have traveled 78.115 meters.

6x + 40 = 2(x^2)

X^2 - 3x - 20

6.217 s

6 s using sig figs.

Assuming the human attempts to maximize his time to stay alive.  ;)

That assumes that the human will attempt to run rather than fight back and that the human dies on the spot where the velociraptor catches him/her. I mean it is possible that the raptor might miss while making an jump on the human and even after being hit the human might crawl for a few more meters.

Personally I would try to fight. Unless the scenery has some obstacles or some building where I could barricade myself I would probably get caught sooner or later. Instead by fighting back immediately I will face the velociraptor head on and I haven't exhausted myself by running.


Also the question was HOW FAR WILL YOU GET BEFORE THE RAPTOR CATHES YOU not HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU HAVE LEFT.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

Oh right. 40 meters.

I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

Considering that Velociraptors were actually only about the size of large chickens, maybe 15 lbs, fighting back seems a good option.  But they're like chickens with switchblades on their feet, so you want to avoid giving them a chance to gang up on you.  Kick the leader, hard, and watch your back at all times.

The best part is that they are feathered.
That may be the single gayest thing I have ever read on this board. Or the old one. ;)

And come in many sizes, ranging from pocket-sized to Jurassic Park size.

Well, -raptors- did.  Microraptor, Linheraptor, Utahraptor...  But not velociraptor specifically.  The Jurassic Park 'saur was closer to a Deinonychus.

I was talking about raptors in general, not just velociraptors :X
