A particle confined to move along a curved path has only one degree of freedom. inclined plane are some examples of constrained motion. Every condition of constraint reduces the number of degree of freedom by one.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
t = 16.5s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Acceleration = 3.1m/s²
Initial velocity = 0m/s
Final velocity = 51m/s
Unknown:
Time taken = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem we need to reiterate that acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
So;
Acceleration = 
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
So;
3.1 = 
3.1t = 51
t = 16.5s
While skydiving, its not just freely falling under Earth's gravity. Additional force called drag acts against the gravity which slows down the rate of fall. Drag is caused by the air molecules which pushes against the body as it falls through them. This is actually a significant amount of force which slows down the rate of fall of the body. Drag depends on the contact surface area and weight. More the surface area in contact, more would be the drag. The sitting position of the skydiver would experience less drag than the chest down position because of the less contact surface area of the body with the air molecules while in the former case. No two persons have identical body shape and weight. Hence, the rate of fall can be made nearly equal but not exactly equal. This is would be possible when they are having same body position.
