A soldier jumps from a plane and opens his parachute when his velocity reaches theterminal velocity Vr. The parachute shows him down to his landing velocity of Vr. Afterthe parachute is deployed, the air resistance force is proportional to the velocity squared,i.e., F = kV², where k is resistance coefficient. The soldier, his parachute, and his gearhave a total mass of m.(a) Show that k = mg/V;(b) Develop a relation for the soldier's velocity after he opens the parachute at time 1 = 0.ParachuteFigure Q5

A man (mass 45 kg) shoots himself out of a cannon straight upward with an initial velocity of 46 m/s towards a ledge 95 m above the cannon. There’s some air resistance occurring, and the man’s upward trajectory ends 6.0 meters below the ledge. A) What was the average force of frictional air resistance the man experienced during his upward motion? B) Assuming the same average air resistance on the way down, how fast will the man’s impact velocity be when he returns to the “ground” level of the cannon’s muzzle? Please answer the question on paper. I do not understand when it is typed out. Thank you
