This upward force is initially greater than the weight of the sky diver and, thus, slows him down. Suppose the weight of the sky diver is 986 N and the drag force has a magnitude of 1049 N. The mass of the sky diver is 101 kg. Take upward to be the positive direction. What is his acceleration, including sign?
