4. A skydiver with a mass of 70 kg jumps out of a plane from a height of 4000.0 m. After falling freely for 1500 m, they deploy their parachute. The parachute creates a constant upward force and the skydiver accelerates at a rate of 7.5 m/s2 [upward], eventually reaching a terminal velocity of 14 m/s [downwards). The skydiver then falls to the ground at a constant speed for the rest of the dive. How long does it take for the skydiver to reach the ground?
