Son Ye Jin (SYJ), 45 kg, drops from a helicopter 4 km above the ground. Assume the air resistance is proportional to the velocity of the SYJ, with k = 15 N-sec/m when the chute is closed and with constant k₂= 105 N-sec/m when the chute is open. If the chute does not open until 1 min after SYJ paraglides, when will she hit the ground?
