25,000 Feet = 7620m
PE = mgh where m is mass, g is gravity accel: 9.8 n h is height
= 90 x 9.8 x 7620
= 6720840J
= 6.72MJ
F = ma where m is mass, a is accel = gravity = 9.8
= 90 x 9.8
= 882N
Accel = gravity = 9.8m/s^2
KE = 1/2mv^2 where m is mass n v is vel
if no wind resistance, PE leaving airplane = KE at net
6720840 = 1/2 x 90 x v^2
v^2 = 149352
v = 386.5m/s
When you talk about Hooke's law, it always have to do something with springs. Hooke's Law, from Robert Hooke, saw a relation between the force applied to the spring and the extension of its length. The equation is: F = kx, where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement of the original and stretched lengths. In other words, x is the length of deformation. Hence, the object must be elastic to come up with a displacement or deformation, in the first place. Then, the Hooke's Law is only applicable to elastic materials.
