A skydiver weighing 200 lbs with clothes that have a drag coefficient of .325 is falling in an area that has an atmospheric density of 1.225 kg/m2 (and assuming that altitude has a negligible effect on atmospheric density). The skydiver can change the body orientation from straight-erect with a cross-sectional area of 6 sqft to a belly-flat cross-sectional area of 24 sqft. Calculate the terminal velocity of the person when the body has straight and when the body has belly-flat orientations. Calculate the terminal velocity on these two different orientations.

Acave rescue team lifts an injured spelunker directly upward and out of a sinkhole by means of a motor-driven cable. the lift is performed in three stages, each requiring a vertical distance of 11.0 m: (a) the initially stationary spelunker is accelerated to a speed of 4.80 m/s; (b) he is then lifted at the constant speed of 4.80 m/s; (c) finally he is decelerated to zero speed. how much work is done on the 78.0 kg rescue by the force lifting him during each stage
