A skydiver of mass 75 kg jumps with a parachute from an airplane. After the parachute opens, she falls with an acceleration of 2.4 m/s22 downward. What is the magnitude of the force with which the parachute pulls on the person?
Gravitational acceleration = g = 9.81 m/s2
Mass of the skydiver = m = 75 kg
Force with which the parachute pulls on the person = F
Acceleration of the skydiver after the parachute opens = a = 2.4 m/s2 downwards
From the free body diagram,
ma = mg - F
(75)(2.4) = (75)(9.81) - F
F = 555.75 N
Magnitude of the force with which the parachute pulls on the person = 555.75 N

2. 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,...
A skydiver weighing 170 lb (including equipment) falls vertically downward from an altitude of 13,000 ft and opens the parachute after 18 s of free fall. Assume that the force of air resistance, which is directed opposite to the velocity, is of magnitude 0.55|?|0.55|v| when the parachute is closed and is of magnitude 18|?|18|v| when the parachute is open, where the velocity ?vis measured in ft/s. Assume that acceleration due to gravity has magnitude 32 ft/s/s; remember that weight is...

A 85 kg sky diver jumps out of a plane at an altitude of 700 m. After the skydiver falls for a period the parachute opens and lands with a speed of 3.6 m/s. What is the energy dissipated by the parachute during the dive? 75 kJ 14 kJ 114 kJ 1.8 kJ
003 10.0 points A man jumps from an airplane and does not open his parachute immediately. As he falls, two forces act on him: the force mg due to gravity and the force na of air resistance. Now he opens his parachute and begins to fall at constant velocity What forces act upon him now? 1. Since he is falling at constant velocity the force of air resistance no longer acts on him. 2. The same two forces act on...
A skydiver jumps from a plane and deploys her parachute. Do not neglect air resistance. After the parachute is deployed, will the sum of kinetic energy plus potential energy be conserved (K+P=constant)? Why/why not?
Note that the answer is
not:
- 0 m/s^2
- 7.848 m/s^2
A skydiver jumps off of an airplane. The plane flies at an altitude of 4 km, and at a speed of 100 km/hr. The skydiver "jumps" by simply letting go of the plane and falling out. Gravity is the only thing affecting their motion until they open their parachute at a height of 2.5 km. After opening their parachute, they experience constant acceleration until they land perfectly, with...
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...
