The Electric field is E=23400 V/m.
What is electric potential ?
The amount of labor required to convey a unit of electric charge from a reference point to a given place in an electric field is known as the electric potential (also known as the electric field potential, potential drop, or the electrostatic potential). More specifically, it is the energy per unit charge for a test charge that is negligibly disruptive to the field under discussion.
The electric field of a spherical conductor is given by:
Here 'E' is the electric field and 'Q' is the electric charge.
therefore putting the values we get,
E=23400 V/m

(a) 30.9 m
Let's analyze the motion of the parachutist. Its vertical position above the ground is given by
where
h = 45 m is the initial height
u = 10 m/s is the initial velocity (upward)
t is the time
g = -9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (downward)
Substituting t=3 s , we find the height of the parachutist when it opens the parachute:
(b) 44.1 m
Here we have to find first the height of the balloon 3 seconds after the parachutist has jumped off from it. The vertical position of the balloon is given by
y = h + ut
where
h = 45 m is the initial height
u = 10 m/s is the initial velocity (upward)
t is the time
Substituting t = 3 s, we find
y = 45 m + (10 m/s)(3 s) = 75 m
So the distance between the balloon and the parachutist after 3 s is
d = 75 m - 30.9 m = 44.1 m
(c) 8.2 m/s downward
The velocity of the parachutist at the moment he opens the parachute is:
v = u +gt
where
u = 10 m/s is the initial velocity (upward)
t is the time
g = -9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (downward)
Substituting t = 3 s,
v = 10 m/s + (-9.8 m/s^2)(3 s)= -19.4 m/s
where the negative sign means it is downward
After t=3 s, the parachutist open the parachute and it starts moving with a deceleration of
a =+5 m/s^2
where we put a positive sign since this time the acceleration is upward.
The total distance he still has to cover till the ground is
d = 30.9 m
So we can find the final velocity by using
where this time we have u = 19.4 m/s as initial velocity. Taking the downward direction as positive, the deceleration must be considered as negative:
a = -5 m/s^2
Solving for v,
(d) 5.24 s
We can find the duration of the second part of the motion of the parachutist (after he has opened the parachute) by using
where
a = -5 m/s^2 is the deceleration
v = 8.2 m/s is the final velocity
u = 19.4 m/s is the initial velocity
t is the time
Solving for t, we find
And added to the 3 seconds between the instant of the jump and the moment he opens the parachute, the total time is
t = 3 s + 2.24 s = 5.24 s
