. a. Consider two parachutists, a heavy person and a light person, who jump from the same altitude with parachutes of the same size. Which person reaches terminal speed first? Which person has the greater terminal speed? Which person reach the ground first? If there were no air resistance, as on the moon, how would your answers to these questions differ?
2) A disk (40mm diameter and 0.2 kg mass) is dropped in the air. Consider g = 10 m/s² and the density of air 1.2 kg/m³. Assume that the drag coefficient of the disk is 1.17. At t=0, the disk speed V = 0. a) What is the acceleration and distance when the ball speed reaches to 1/4V₁, where V, is the terminal speed? b) What would be the answer for part (a) if the falling object is hemispherical (40mm diameter and 0.2 kg mass)? Explain
AN OBJECT WITH A MASS OF 0.980 Kg and a frontal area of 0.0400 m^2 is falling straight down. the object reaches a terminal speed at a height of 14.6 m above the ground. take the drag coefficient to be 1.00 and the density of air to be 1.21 Kg/m^3 a. determine the terminal speed. b. determine the time it takes the object to reach the ground after it reaches terminal speed
What is the net external force on an object in freefall on Earth if you were to neglect the effect of air? O The net force iszero. O The net force is upward with magnitude mg. The net force is downward with magnitude mg. O The net force is downward with magnitude 9.8 N.
A small piece of Styrofoam packing material is dropped from a height of 2.00 m above the ground. Until it reaches terminal speed, the magnitude of its acceleration is given by a = g Bv. After falling 0.500 m, the Styrofoam effectively reaches terminal speed and then takes 5.00 s more to reach the ground. (a) What is the value of the constant B? (b) What is the acceleration at t = 0? (c) What is the acceleration when the speed is 0.150 m/s?
A stubborn dog is being walked on a leash by its owner. At one point, the dog encounters an interesting scent at some spot on the ground and wants to explore It in detail, but the owner gets impatient and pulls on the leash with force along the leash. (a) What is the magnitude of the pulling force? (b) What angle does the leash make with the vertical?
The drag coefficient C in FD=12CAv2 (Eq. 6.5) depends primarily on the shape of the object. You already have developed an intuition about what shapes correspond to a low C by observing the shapes of aerodynamic cars, boats, and even bullets. Which object, a sphere or a cube, would have a larger drag coefficient, assuming they are nearly the same size? Explain your reasoning. What aspect of an object most determines its drag coefficient?

The terminal velocity of a 4x10-5 kg raindrop is about 7 m/s. Assume a drag force FD=-bv. a) Determine the value of the constant b. b) Determine the time required for such a drop, starting from rest, to reach 63% of terminal velocity.
=. Consider a skydiver falling towards the Earth. Air friction acts to oppose their motion. At some point the skydiver reaches their terminal speed: their constant maximum speed (before they open the parachute). Before and after terminal speed is reached, what can you say about the relationship between the force of air friction and the force of gravity? Briefly explain.
10. If two objects are dropped in an environment without air resistance, what will occur? Both of the objects will fall with constant velocity O The lighter of the two objects will fall faster than the heavier. O The heavier of the two objects will fall faster than the lighter. O The objects will accelerate downward at the same rate.
