I'm just watching IM3.
No major spoilers, but Tony's *fight in the dungeon*(With a glove and one boot) takes place in real time(He gets them and says "Where's the rest?", before the camera cuts to Tennessee and the armour is stuck behind a door trying to get out).
Now.
Because it's happening in real time, i started my stopwatch on my phone the second that the last piece of armour leaves the kid's garage.
He plays out the fight with the goons and starts running along a passageway and the armour arrives.
I forget the name of the town in Tennesse the armour was in. But if it was in the centre of the state, that is 873 miles from Miami...
And it takes(Drum roll.....):
57 seconds of screen time for the armour to arrive...
Because he asked to himself where the armour is and because it cuts to the kid's house, it has to be real time.
Which means the MK42 pieces are capable of travelling at(Wait for it), close to 55,000MPH....
And it's even worse than that...
Even allowing for air drag, the armour must accellerate even faster than that speed, for the 55,000MPH speed would take a while to get to. So, let's say it took ten seconds to accelerate to full speed, then another ten seconds to decelerate to a slow enough speed to attach to Tony...
Then the actual max speed attained could be closer to 80,000MPH(Allowing for the speeding up/slowing down phase, whilst still covering the 873 miles in 57 seconds...)
Now my mind works slower as it gets closer to bed time. Have i calculated that right?

Can someone tell me my mathematical workings are wrong?

Out of everything in that movie, THAT is what gets you? Extremis on the other hand, is totally plausible?
 
If you can suspend belief that someone can be kept alive by an arc reactor and then build armor to sustain that power to become a superhero, I can believe that the friggin' thing can travel at the speed of light for all they care.

Well I just asked my ex girlfriend (work for Nasa) all she had to say really. But she did need to know the size and weight of each part.

To do the math you would need to know the size of each individual item. With weight. Give me that information an we will give you the mathematical ex.

Things are definitely wrong there, and it's not anything to do with your grasp of kinetics.
 
I do wish he would have Been able to use it at full capacity at least once in the movie.
