A sky diver with a mass of 75.0kg jumps out of an airplane as part of a local air show
a. Calculate the drag force on the sky diver when she reaches her terminal velocity.
b. Each cord connecting the sky diver and her parachute is rated to hold up to 105N of tension. How many cords must the parachute have in order to ennsure safe operation when the sky diver opens the parachute after she reaches terminal velocity?
c. Upon opening, the parachute pulls upward on the sky with a force of 550N. What is the sky diver's acceleration with the open parachute? Neglect the mass of the parachute

A sky diver jumps from a helicopter and is falling straight down at 30 m/s when her parachute opens. From then on, her downward acceleration is approximately = g - cv^2, where g = 9.81 m/s^2 and c is a constant. After an initial "transient" period the descends at a nearly constant velocity of 5 m/s. (a) What is the value of c, and what are its 9 units? (b) What maximum deceleration is the sky diver subjected to? (c)...

A sky diver jumps out of an airplane and after dropping a distance of 46 m, the diver has lost 25000.0 J of gravitational potential energy. What is the gravitational force acting on the diver? between 700 and 750 N between 600 and 650 N between 850 and 900 N between 550 and 600 N between 650 and 700 N less than 550 N greater than 900 N between 750 and 800 N

John jumps out of an airplane at a height of 10,000 feet and opens his parachute. He quickly reaches a terminal velocity of 53 m/s. When he is 146 m above a hovering supply helicopter (and 500 m above ground), a supply package is dropped. The package is small enough that the air resistance is negligible. Will John reach the package? If not, how close does he come?

1. If a sky-diver jumps out of a plane, two forces will act on him, gravity and air resistance. If we assume air resistance is proportional to the velocity, we get the total force on the sky diver will be F = −gm − kv, where g is a acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth, m is the mass of the sky-diver, v is the velocity of the sky-diver, and k is constant of proportionality for...

1. Consider a sky diver in free fall (a) Draw a free body diagram showing the forces acting on the sky diver. Note that the drag force will be proprtional to velocity squared, and act in the opposite direction to velocity. (b) Apply Newton's 2nd Law to model the skydiver's velocity with a 1st order ODE, treating down as the positive direction. Present your ODE in standard form (c) A skydiver has a mass of 90 kg, and a drag...

Express each answer as a magnitude. (No negative answers) A girl has a mass of 63 kg. What is her weight? She jumps out of an airplane. What is her rate of acceleration at that moment? She opens her parachute. This causes her to experience a drag force of 970 N, slowing her down. What is the net force acting on her at this moment? What is her rate of acceleration at this moment? As she slows, the drag force...
A 50kg skydiver jumps out of an airplane. We assume that the forces acting on the body are the force of gravity and a retarding force of air resistance with direction opposite to the direction of motion and with magnitude cv^2 where c=.1275 kg/m and i
A 50kg skydiver jumps out of an airplane. We assume that the forces acting on the body are the force of gravity and a retarding force of air resistance with direction opposite to the direction of motion and with magnitude cv^2 where c=.1275 kg/m and is the velocity of the skydiver at time t (and upward is positive velocity). The gravitational constant is 9.8 m/s^2 . a) Find a differential equation for the velocity. b) Determine the terminal velocity in...
