We'll assume you mean 2 seconds AFTER he's jumped from the plane. A good estimate would be 9.8m/s times 2 (9.8m/s/s times 2 seconds -- the standard value of the acceleration due to gravity). In two seconds, the velocity would be low enough that air resistance could probably be ignored for purposes of answering your homework. So try 19.6 m/s, unless your teacher gave your data on the air resistance of the sky diver.

What is a skydivers velocity after 2 seconds?
Acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s/s, which is the same as 9.8m/s2. An acceleration of 9.8m/s/s means that with each passing second, the velocity of the skydiver increases by 9.8m/s. Therefore, after two seconds. a skydiver's velocity would be 19.6m/s. The acceleration will continue at 9.8m/s/s until the skydiver reaches terminal velocity, at which point the weight of the skydiver and the air resistance will be balanced, so the net force acting on the skydiver will be zero, at which point there will be no further acceleration.
A diver jumps from a 48ft cliff into the ocean with an initial velocity of 8 seconds when does he hit the water?
"8 seconds" is not a velocity.
What is the skydivers average velocity for the 3 seconds?
14.715 m/s. This is worked out by knowing that gravity will accelerate a body at 9.81 (m/s)/s. The average velocity is the speed at 3s plus the speed at 0s divided by 2. Speed at 0s = 0 x 9.81 = 0 m/s Speed at 3s = 3 x 9.81 = 29.43 m/s (29.43 + 0) / 2 = 14.715 m/s.
What is the velocity if the distance is 100m and the speed is 150 seconds?
.13m
What is the formula for a change in velocity?
Two ways: If the change in velocity is the result of hitting something, use the Momentum Equation. If the change in velocity is the result of applying a force, use the Impulse Equation. You probably mean this equation, which is: FT = m(Vf - Vo) Or, An object of mass "m" will change from velocity "Vo" to velocity "Vf" if the force "F" is applied for "T" seconds.
What is the terminal velocity of skydivers?
187 miles per hour.
A skydiver slows down from 65 ms by opening the parachute if this takes 0.75 seconds what is the skydivers acceration?
To calculate this, you divide the change in velocity, by the time.

Skydivers spend the first several seconds of their jump in freefall?

What is a skydivers downwords velocity after 1 second when falling from a hovering helicopter?
Neglecting air resistance his velocity after 1 second will be 9.81 m/sec or 32.2 ft/sec.
What velocity does the student have after five seconds?
Velocity increases after 5 seconds
A skydiver slows down from 54 m s to 4 m s by opening his parachute this takes 0.75 seconds what is the skydivers acceleration?
He will decelerate (meaning an acceleration in the direction opposite of current velocity) at a rate of (54 m/s - 4 m/s)/.75 seconds = 66.67 m/s2. This is about 6.8 Gs.
How do you get the velocity?
Velocity is derived by dividing displacement with time in seconds
What is the duration of The Skydivers?
The duration of The Skydivers is 1.25 hours.
What is the average velocity between 0 and 3 seconds?
The average velocity has two parts to it: The average speed and the average direction. The average speed is: (the distance you travel between 0 and 3 seconds) divided by (3). The average direction is: the direction from (the place where you started at 0 seconds) to (the place where you finished at 3 seconds).
If a ball is thrown vertically up with the velocity of 40m s what would be its velocity after two seconds?
Ignoring air resistance and using g = 9.81 ms-2, velocity = 20.38 ms-1.
What is the velocity of the object between 20 and 40 seconds?
The velocity = (location at 40 seconds - location at 20 seconds)/20 in the direction in which the object is moving.
