An 80.0-kg sky diver jumps out of a balloon at an altitude of 1000 m and opens the parachute at an altitude of
200 m. Assuming that the total resistive force on the diver is constant at 50.0 N with the parachute
closed and constant at 3600 N with the parachute open, find the speed of the sky diver when he lands on
the ground.
A. 0 m/s
B. 600 m/s
C. 68.4 m/s
D. 24.5 m/s
Answer
Walker5e Example 8-16
A golfer badly misjudges a putt, sending the ball only
one-quarter of the distance to the hole. The original putt gave the ball an
initial speed of vi. If the force of resistance due to the grass is constant,
what initial speed is needed to get the ball to the hole from its original position?
A. 2vi
B. 3vi
C. 4vi
D. 16vi
Answer
Walker4e Active Example 8-2
A 95.0-kg diver steps off a diving board and drops h = 3.00 m to the water surface. At some depth d below the surface the diver comes to rest. If the work done by the external force (from the water) is −5120 J, what is the depth d?
A. 1.17 m
B. 2.50 m
C. 3.00 m
D. 7.67 m

D. 24.5 m/s
The skydiver begins with 784 kJ of gravitational potential energy but 720 kJ is removed by the nonconservative (or external to the system) air drag force. Here is a representative bar chart:
answer
A. 2vi
The work done by the friction from the grass during the first putt is
−½mvi². Because work is fd, four times the distance
means friction will do four times the work during the second putt. That, in turn, means the ball needs
four times the kinetic energy to make it to the hole. A ball with twice the speed will have four times
the kinetic energy, so we need only double the initial speed.
answer
B. 2.50 m
The work done by the water removes the kinetic energy the diver gains by falling a distance h + d

C. 685
