Amonkey hanging from a tree branch sees a hunter aiming a rifle directly at him. the monkey then sees a flash and knows that the rifle has been fired. reacting quickly, the monkey lets go of the branch and drops so that the bullet can pass harmlessly over his head. does this act save the monkey’s life? why or why not? (hint: consider the similarities between this situation and that of exercise 24.11.)

1point) a skydiver weighing 130 lb (including equipment) falls vertically downward from an altitude of 14,000 ft and opens the parachute after 20 s of free fall. assume that the force of air resistance, which is directed opposite to the velocity, is of magnitude 0.85|v|0.85|v| when the parachute is closed and is of magnitude 17|v|17|v| when the parachute is open, where the velocity vv is measured in ft/s. assume that acceleration due to gravity has magnitude 32 ft/s/s; remember that weight is the product of mass and gravitational acceleration. find the speed of the skydiver when the parachute opens. speed is 150.6121788 ft/s find the skydiver's height when the parachute opens. height is 2338.98591 ft find the limiting velocity vlvl after the parachute opens. (think about whether this should be positive or negative.) vl=vl= 7.647 ft/s
