(1 point) Math 216 Homework webHW3, Problem 6 A person leaps from an airplane 6000 feet above the ground and deploys her/his parachute after 9 seconds. Assume that the air resistance both before and after deployment of the parachute results in a deceleration proportional to the persons velocity, but with a different constant of proportionality. Before deployment, take the constant to be 0.11, and after deployment use the value 1.6. (The acceleration due to gravity is 32.2ft/sec2. Note also that the constants of proportionality given are p- k/m, not k.) How fast is the person going when the parachute is deployed? speed (32.21.11)(1+e^(-11*9) How high off the ground is the person when the parachute is deployed? height- (-32.2/.11)(9+(1/.11)eA(.119) Approximately (to one decimal place) how much longer does it take the person to reach the ground (give your answer in seconds)? time 189.1
