An 80 kg person jumps out of a plane. If the air resistance is 800 N, find the

Acceleration.

The acceleration is 10 m/s²

Explanation:

The question seeks to show the relationship between force, mass and acceleration. Hence, the formula to be used here is that of force which is shown below

F = ma

where F is the force (800 N)

m is the mass (80 kg)

a is the acceleration (unknown)

From the formula above (Force = mass multiplied by acceleration)

800 N = 80 kg * a

a = 800 : 80

a = 10 m/s²

The answer is 10.

Explanation:

The values are given in the question that is,

Force=800

Mass=80

Put it in the formula of force that is

F=ma,

We have to find acceleration so it becomes,

F/m=a

a=800/80

a=10.
