Can you write 2000 words in 2 hours ?

I have a question. Say if someone was handwriting something (say an essay) and they were simply copying 2000 words, could they do it in 2 hours, in neat handwriting?

By by the way I'm not copying anyone's work or anything sounds like it ha but im asking for some other reason.

2000/2 = 1000 words per hour
1000/60 = 16.67 words per minute
16.67/60 = 0.27 words per second

Approximately 1 word every 4 seconds, sounds fairly easy if it's just copying.

No break
If you can write 16.7 words per minute, or a word every 3.6 seconds, then yes.

10 minute break after an hour
If you can write 18.2 words per minute, or a word every 3.3 seconds, then yes.
