this is an exam question and i am not sure about my answer:
a man with a mass of 60 kg is a parachutist :
calculate the acceleration if the air resistance is 1200N
this is how i solved it:
we must take the wieght into consideration so his wieght is : w=mG G=approximatly 10ms^-2
60(10)=600N
so 1200-600= 600
600=60a
10=a
please tell me is this right?
