Question

A skydiver jumps out of a plane that has a forward velocity of 40 m/s. That means that the skydiver has a forward velocity of 40 m/s. Ignore air resistance.

What is the skydiver's acceleration?

Answer 1

okay chica i'll see what i can do!

Answer 2

@ShadowLegendX any idea?

Answer 3

?? The acceleration is 9.8m.s srry thats all i got to say

Answer 4

I didn't know if it was positive or negative.

Answer 5

g

Answer 6

downward

Answer 7

g? @IrishBoy123

Answer 8

lol left u hanging

Answer 9

gravity. it acts downward. so - g

Answer 10

\[Acceleration = -9.8 \frac{ m }{ s^2 }\]

Answer 11

Which is the velocity of gravity

Answer 12

And it would be negative due to it going downward along the y axis

Answer 13

ha so i was right @ShadowLegendX

Answer 14

**the velocity of gravity** ?!?!

Answer 15

acceleration

Answer 16

**the acceleration of gravity** ?!?!

Answer 17

direction

Answer 18

Do you want me to point you to a source?

Answer 19

I don't understand where you're going with that, lol

Answer 20

nvm
