A man jumps from an airplane and does not
open his parachute immediately. As he falls,
two forces act on him: the force mg due to
gravity and the force n, of air resistance. Now
he opens his parachute and begins to fall at
constant velocity.
What forces act upon him now?
1. Since he is falling at constant velocity
gravity no longer acts on him.
2. None of these
3. Since he is falling at constant velocity the
force of air resistance no longer acts on him.
4. The same two forces act on him as before;
the only change is that with the parachute
open, the two forces sum to zero.
5. When the parachute opens there is an
additional force n, which has nothing to do
with either n, or mg

Calculate the heat capacity per object when the total energy is 4 quanta. (think of this in terms of increasing from 3.5 quanta of energy in the system to 4.5 quanta of energy in the system, if that were possible.) c4 = __ j/k/object

You are driving to the grocery store at 20 m/s. you are 110m from an intersection when the traffic light turns red. assume that your reaction time is 0.50s and that your car brakes with constant acceleration. how far are you from the intersection when you begin to apply the brakes? what acceleration will bring you to rest right at the intersection? how long does it take you to stop after the light changes? the known values: vi=20m/s xi=110m t=.50s vf=0m/s xf=0m a=?
