A skydiver slows down from 54 ms to 4 ms by opening his parachute. If this takes 0.75 seconds what is the magnitude of the skydiver's acceleration?

66.7 m/s2


A skydiver slows down from 54 ms to 5 ms by opening his parachute. If this takes .75 seconds what is the magnitude of the skydiver's acceleration?

The change in velocity is 54 m/s - 5 m/s = 49 m/s. The time is 0.75 seconds. Using the equation a = (vf - vi) / t, the acceleration is (49 m/s) / (0.75 s) = 65.33 m/s^2.


Is a skydiver increasing or decreasing his speed during the first three seconds?

A skydiver is increasing their speed during the first three seconds of free fall due to gravity pulling them downwards. As the skydiver falls, their speed will continue to increase until they reach terminal velocity.


What is a skydivers velocity after 2 seconds?

Acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s/s, which is the same as 9.8m/s2. An acceleration of 9.8m/s/s means that with each passing second, the velocity of the skydiver increases by 9.8m/s. Therefore, after two seconds. a skydiver's velocity would be 19.6m/s. The acceleration will continue at 9.8m/s/s until the skydiver reaches terminal velocity, at which point the weight of the skydiver and the air resistance will be balanced, so the net force acting on the skydiver will be zero, at which point there will be no further acceleration.


What is the Order of Magnitude of the number of seconds in one hour?

The order of magnitude of the number of seconds in one hour is around 10^4, or 10,000 seconds.

What is the skydiver's downward velocity?

Maximum speed is about 220 to 230mph and can be achieved after about 20 seconds of freefall. Normal parachute opening speed should be not greater that 120mph to avoid damage to the parachute


A skydiver slows down from 54 ms to 4 ms by opening his parachute. if it takes 0.75 seconds what is the magnitude of the skydiver's acceleration?

(4 m/s - 54 m/s)/0.75 s = -50/0.75 m/s² = -200/3 ≈ - 66.67 m/s² (negative because he is decelerating)

A skydiver slows down from 65 ms by opening the parachute if this takes 0.75 seconds what is the skydivers acceration?

To calculate this, you divide the change in velocity, by the time.


When a skydiver jumps from an airplane the distance d in feet the diver falls in t seconds before opening the parachute is given by the formula Test Image. The formula assumes that there is no air res?

If d = 16*t^2 then there is no significant air resistance.
