Answer:

OC. blizzard

Explanation:

In the United States, the National Weather Service defines a blizzard as a severe snow storm characterized by strong winds causing blowing snow that results in low visibilities. ... A severe blizzard has winds over 72 km/h (45 mph), near zero visibility, and temperatures of −12 °C (10 °F) or lower.

Suppose a skydiver jumps out of a plane at 15,000 meters above the ground. It takes him 2.0 seconds to pull the cord to deploy t
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

The time he can wait to pull the cord is 41.3 s

Explanation:

The equation for the height of the skydiver at a time "t" is as follows:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

Where:

y = height at time "t".

y0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

First, let´s calculate how much time will it take for the skydiver to hit the ground if he doesn´t activate the parachute.

When he reaches the ground, the height will be 0 (placing the origin of the frame of reference on the ground). Then:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

0 m = 15000 m + 0 m/s · t - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t²

0 m = 15000 m - 4.9 m/s² · t²

-15000 m / -4.9 m/s² = t²

t = 55.3 s

Then, if it takes 4.0 s for the parachute to be fully deployed and the parachute has to be fully deployed 10.0 s before reaching the ground, the skydiver has to pull the cord 14.0 s before reaching the ground. Then, the time he can wait before pulling the cord is (55.3 s - 14.0 s) 41.3 s.
