Answer:
The approximate terminal velocity of a sky diver before the parachute opens is 320 km/h.
Explanation:
- The terminal velocity is the maximum magnitude of velocity that is attained by the diver when he or she falls in the air.
- The terminal velocity of the person diving in air before opening parachute is 320 km/h that means the velocity when the person is experiencing free fall is 320 km/h.
- During terminal velocity, we can represent mathematical equation as;
Buoyancy force + drag force = Gravity
Answer: 0.25 m/s
Explanation: Speed = wavelengt · frequency
v = λf and frequency is 1/period f = 1/T
Then v = λ/T = 5 m / 20 s = 0.25 m/s
