Problem
A parachutist of mass 68.1 kg
jumps out of a stationary hot air
balloon. The drag coefficient is
equal to 12.5 kg/s. Compute
velocity when t = 10 seconds! The
parachutist is initially at rest (v = 0
at t = 0)
Problem Analysis
Newton Formula: F = ma
F = net force (N) or (kg m/s2)
m = mass of object (kg)
a = its acceleration (m/s2)
F = FD + FU
FD is the downward force due to
gravity -> FD = mg
g = the acceleration due to gravity (9.8
m/s2)
Problem Analysis
Newton Formula: F = ma

Exercises #2:
1. Using t = 1 second, compute velocity when t
= 15 seconds. -> v(15) = ?
2. Compute True percent relative error for t = 1,
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15
seconds.
