Question

Bronco skydives and parachutes from a stationary helicopter. Various stages of fall are shown in positions a through f as illustrated below. Using Newton's 2nd law, a = F(net)/m = W - R , where a is acceleration, W is weight and R is air Resistance. Find Bronco's acceleration at each positions athrough f (Type in on Google form answers a-f, show supporting calculations on your notes). Bronco's mass is 100 kg so his weight W is a constant 1000 N. Air resistance R varies with speed and cross-sectional area as show.
