Once the parachute is opened, the air resistance overwhelms the downward force of gravity.

When the parachutes open, the amount of space that is going against the air increases, so the resistance increases, and it overwhelms the force of gravity for a while until it reaches equilibrium

if one sprinter runs the 400.0 m in 58 seconds and another can run the same distance in 60.0 seconds, by how much distance will

SCORPION-xisa [38]

v = 400m/58s = 6.9m/s

v = 400m/60s = 6.7m/s

6.9m/s - 6.7m/s = .2m/s difference

60sec - 58 sec = 2 sec

v =Δx/t

Δx = vt

Δx = (.2m/s)(2sec)

Δx = .4m

therefore, the answer is .4m
