You contact the jumpers used to generate the data in Table 2.1 and measure their frontal areas. The resulting values, which are ordered in the same sequence as the corresponding values in Table 2.1, are

(a) If the air density is ρ = 1.223 kg/m3, use MATLAB to compute values of the dimensionless drag coefficient CD.


(b) Determine the average, minimum, and maximum of the resulting values.


(c) Develop a stacked plot of A versus m (upper) and CD versus m (lower). Include descriptive axis labels and titles on the plots.

TABLE 2.1 Data for the mass and associated terminal velocities of a number of jumpers.
