How does the speed parachute help you?

Physics forces (1 dimension) help?

  • Answer:

    First, use kinematics to figure out how much acceleration he has, use the speed and the time. Next, use F=ma. F is the sum of forces: how many forces are acting on him? What are they? Remember to choose a direction to be positive, and then be consistent. If "up" is positive, then any vector pointing up is positive and any vector pointing down is negative. Good luck.
