A falling skydiver is accelerating in the downward direction at 3.29 m/s^2. The mass of the skydiver (including parachute gear) is 67.2 kg. Determine the air resistance force on the skydiver (and accompanying parachute).

This is the complete answer and solution for the problem

Given:

a = 3.29 m/s²

m = 67.2 kg

Unknown:

Force = ?

Formula and Solution:

F = ma

F = (67.2 kg)(3.29 m/s²)

Final

221.09 kg.m/s² or simplify as 221.09 N
