Question

Please show all work for c,& d as I cannot solve it for the life of myself

A high-altitude skydiver of mass 100kg jumps from an altitude of 25km. Assume a near-standard
atmosphere, with the following properties:

d) Produce computer-generated plots of the following four quantities experienced by the sky-
diver: altitude, temperature, speed, and temperature rate of change (dT /dt|skydiver). Put
time on the horizontal axis for all plots. 
 
Use code if possible, I really need help on this, so the sooner I can be leant a hand the better

These given altitudes correspond to starts and ends of atmospheric layers. Assume that the tem-
perature varies linearly in each layer. The skydiver's freefall descent is quasi-steady, so that the
drag force always balances the weight. The magnitude of the drag force is
D= p² ACD,
where v is the skydiver's speed, A = 1.0m² is the reference area, and Cp = 0.4 is the drag coefficient.
Note that the density, p, varies with altitude, h. Assume acceleration due to gravity, 9 = 9.8m/s²,
remains constant, and that air is a perfect gas with gas constant R = 287J/kg.K. The skydiver
remains in freefall until an altitude of 3km, at which point the parachute opens.
a) The skydiver is at an altitude h in a layer whose starting temperature and pressure are To
