13–43. A parachutist having a mass m opens his parachutefrom an at-rest position at a very high altitude. If theatmospheric drag resistance is Fp = kv?, where k is aconstant, determine his velocity when he has fallen for atime t. What is his velocity when he lands on the ground?This velocity is referred to as the terminal velocity, which isfound by letting the time of fall t→ o.FD

Draw the free-body diagram of the parachute.

Prob. 14-1 14-2. For protection, the barrel barrier is placed in front of the bridge pier. If the relation between the force and deflection of the barrier is F= (90(10%)x/2) Ib, where x is in ft, determine the car’s maximum penetration in the barrier. The car has a weight of 4000 Ib and it is traveling with a speed of 75 ft/s just before it hits the barrier. F(Ib)
Show that the girl at A can throw the ball to the boy at B by launching it at equal angles measured up or down from a 45° inclination. If VA = 10 m/s, determine the range R if this value is 15°, i.e., θ1 = 45° -15° = 30° and θ2 = 45° + 15° = 60°. Assume the ball is caught at the same elevation from which it is thrown.
