Solve.

Limiting Velocity As a skydiver falls, his velocity keeps increasing. However, because of air resistance, the rate at which the velocity increases keeps decreasing and there is a limit velocity that the skydiver cannot exceed. To see this behavior, graph

where V is the velocity in feet per second and t is the time in seconds.

a. What is the velocity at time t = 10 sec?


b. What is the horizontal asymptote for this graph?


c. What is the limiting velocity that cannot be exceeded?
