When does a skydiver achieve termianl velocity?
A skydiver typically achieves terminal velocity within 10-15 seconds after jumping out of the plane. Terminal velocity is reached when the force of air resistance pushing up on the falling object equals the force of gravity pulling it down, resulting in a constant falling speed.
When does a skydiver achieve terminal velocity?
A skydiver typically achieves terminal velocity, the maximum velocity at which they fall through the air, within 10-12 seconds of jumping out of the plane. This usually occurs at around 120 mph (193 km/h) for a skydiver in a belly-to-earth position.
What is the skydiver's forward velocity?
The skydiver's forward velocity can vary depending on factors such as body positioning, wind speed, and altitude. On average, a skydiver falling in a stable belly-to-earth position can reach speeds of around 120 mph (193 km/h).
How does terminal velocity affect acceleration?
The terminal velocity of an object moving through a fluid under the force of gravity (let's assume the fluid is air for sake of discussion) occurs at the speed where the drag force of the air on the object becomes equal to the weight of the object. At this point the object has stopped accelerating and is in uniform motion (constant speed).For example, a skydiver jumping out of a plane will accelerate towards the Earth. At first the skydiver is accelerating at 9.8 m/s2, the gravitational acceleration of the Earth. But as he accelerates to higher speed, drag force becomes greater and the rate of acceleration slows. Drag force is proportional to the square of the speed, by the way. Eventually the skydiver will reach a speed (around 120 mph depending on the orientation of the skydiver's body) where the drag force is equal to his weight. That will be his terminal velocity.
Why is gravity important for skydiving?
Without gravity, there would be no atmosphere to skydive in (or breathe!). All the air would simply disperse into space. The pull of gravity gets weaker, the further you are from the Earth, however this is not noticeable by a skydiver jumping from 15,000ft. Gravity helps the air to stay close to the earth. This air can be manipulated to turn, move forwards & backwards, increase and decrease freefall speeds, remain stable and of course help to deploy the parachute. So yes gravity is vitally important to skydiving and life.
What is take off velocity?
Aircraft etc: The speed at which the aircraftcraft etc must be travelling in order to leave the ground. Athletics/jumping: The speed of the athlete at the point of leaving the ground when jumping e.g. in a high-jump competition.

What is the fastest you could fall from an airplane?
The current world record is from jumping from a balloon 843.6 mph. For a skydiver jumping from an airplane heading straight down close to 200 mph.

Can you survive jumping off deck of aircraft carrier?
No
If after having a dream about sex if your still a virgin?
Yes. If you had a dream about jumping out of a plane, you wouldn't tell people you are a skydiver. Dreaming it does not equal doing it.
What is the skydiver's forward velocity?
The skydiver's forward velocity can vary depending on factors such as body positioning, wind speed, and altitude. On average, a skydiver falling in a stable belly-to-earth position can reach speeds of around 120 mph (193 km/h).
A skydiver jumps from a plane at an altitude of 7000 feet What is the approximate altitude of the diver after fifteen seconds of free fall?
For the average skydiver, the first 15 seconds would cover 2,000 feet. So jumping from 7,000 feet would put him at 5,000 feet in 15 seconds.
What is skydive?
There is not such thing as skydive parabungying. There is however 2 separate sports - skydiving (jumping from an aircraft with a packed parachute) and bungy jumping (leaping from a crane or bridge with a strong elastic rope).

What is the skydiver's upward velocity after 1 second?
I presume you mean 1 second after jumping from the plane. Since skydiver's fall, their velocity is generally in a downward direction, so the upward velocity is negative. The formula v = gt, where g is the acceleration due to gravity which is about 32.2 feet per second per second, tells us that after 1 second it would be about -32.2 feet per second.
What will happen when passenger of aircraft start jumping in flight during steady flight?
it depends on what aircraft is it in a single rotor helicopter , the helicopter might move up n down a bit in any aeroplane there will be nothing happening.
