Two packages are dropped from an airplane. A parachute can increase the cross-sectional area of each packages by a factor of 36. The parachute on package 1 fails to open, and the terminal speed of package 1 is 23.1 m/s. The parachute on package 2 opens. What is the terminal speed of package 2 in m/s? Enter a number with one digit after the decimal point.
Homework Answers
Terminal velocity v = sqrt(2mg/C rho A)
v2/v1 = sqrt(A1/A2)
v2 / 23.1 = sqrt(1/36)
v2 = 23.1/6 = 3.85 m/s answer

1. a. Two equal sized and shaped spheres are dropped from a tall building. Sphere 1 is hollow and has a mass of 1.0 kg. Sphere 2 is filled with lead and has a mass of 9.0 kg. If the terminal speed of Sphere 1 is 6.0 m/s, the terminal speed of Sphere 2 will be b.The cross sectional area of Sphere 2 is increased to 3 times the cross sectional area of Sphere 1. The masses remain 1.0 kg...

1. As a stream of water flows, the cross-sectional area of the stream becomes smaller. If it initially moves with a speed of 1.8 m/s and then the cross-sectional area decreases to one-fourth of the original area, what is the water speed in this narrowed part of the stream?____ m/s 2. (As water falls, its speed increases, due to the acceleration of gravity. If you make a steady stream of water flow from a faucet, you will see that the...
