Alright, I am trying to work out some equations on a project to determine if fictional instances of physics are possible or not. In my case, I am seeing how a person travels if they are thrown from a jet that is traveling vertically (don't ask). I have completed the equations to solve how far the person would travel without air resistance, and they look like this:
Height initial=450 meters
Velocity initial=320 m/s
Time in air=6.5 seconds
Hf=Hi + Vi*T - .5gT^2
Hf=450 meters + 320 m/s * 6.5 s - (4.9m/s^2)6.5s^2
long story short, I get that the person is about 2,323 meters high after 6.5 seconds.
Now, how do I add drag? I did Force of drag equations and came to the concussion that the man experiences 3,763 Newtons of drag. Is this reasonable? And does it factor into previous equations, or do I get a whole new equation I need to deal with now?
