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...
A skydiver jumps out of a plane. The height of a skydiver can be modelled by the quadratic function () = -4.912 + + + 4900, where t is the time in seconds and h, is the height above the ground in metres. After he releases his parachute, his height above the ground can be modelled by the function h (1) -- 51+ 4100. How long after jumping did he release his parachute? (3 marks)
A skydiver of mass m jumps from a hot air balloon and falls a distance d before reaching a terminal velocity of magnitude v . Assume that the magnitude of theacceleration due to gravity is g .-What is the work (Wd) done on the skydiver, over the distance , by the drag force of the air?-Find the power (P d) supplied by the drag force after the skydiver has reached terminal velocity v.
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?
A skydiver jumps out of an airplane at a high altitude and reaches terminal speed. Which of the following statements about the falling skydiver at terminal speed is FALSE? The air resistance force does negative work on the skydiver. The gravitational force on the skydiver must be larger than the air resistance force in order to maintain a downward velocity. At terminal speed, the kinetic energy of the skydiver is constant. The thermal energy of the skydiver-Earth-atmosphere system is increasing....
Suppose a skydiver jumps out of a plane at 15,000 meters above the ground. It takes him 2.0 seconds to pull the cord to deploy the parachute and another 2.0 seconds for the parachute to be fully deployed. Additionally, in order to land safely on the ground, his parachute must be fully deployed 10.0 seconds before he hits the ground. With this information and assuming there is no additional air resistance or changes in atmospheric density, what is the maximum...
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?
A common misconception about Newton’s first law is that when no net force acts on an object, the object must be at rest (i.e. stopped). Here, we will illustrate an example that shows this conception to be false. When a skydiver jumps out of an airplane, she is initially in free-fall and therefore has a downward acceleration of one ‘g’ due to the force of gravity. As she falls, gravity speeds her up. But the faster she goes, the more...
