Take a small little man of some sort, army guy maybe and make a parachute for him. toss him off a balcony or roof or similar. collect data using physics tracker or other such program. decide whether the drag is most like cv^2 or cv. fit a model to it solve the equations by hand. how well do they match up? what is the drag coefficient? how long will he fall before he hits 95% of terminal velocity? what is his terminal velocity?
used the tracker and found the final velocity to be 5.84 m/s and lands 2.44 meters down.
the problem i am having is that i'm not sure how to find the drag coefficient and then how to start the system of equations to solve. it weighs 72.7 grams.

5submission this assignment is worth 20 points total. you are required to submit the following by next lab: 1. (3 points) determine the equation for the output angular velocity ω2 = θ˙ 2 as a function of θ1, ω1 = θ˙ 1 and α. you must show all your work to receive credit. 2. (2 points) use the result of problem#1 to plot ω2 over 0 ≤ θ1 ≤ 360deg with ω1 = 360deg/sec. do this for α = {10,30}deg. show the results on the same plot and properly label the axes, title, legend. for this you can use matlab or ms excel. 3. (3 points) determine the equation for the output angular acceleration ω˙ 2 and create a plot similar to the one in problem#2. 4. (10 points) submit plots of the results (ω2 and ω˙ 2) obtained from creo/mechanism and compare them to results of problem#2 and problem#3. note that you should do these comparisons for the two cases with α = {10,30}deg. 5. (2 points) provide a brief explanation of the results. did they match? what are the implications as misalignment angle increases?
