Question:

Recall that for the falling parachutist problem, the velocity is given by


(1 -e-k«/m) u(t) =


And the distance traveled can be obtained by

Recall that for the falling parachutist problem, the velocity is


Given g = 9.81, m = 70, and c = 12,

(a) Use MATLAB to integrate Eq. (P23.12α) from t = 0 to 10.

(b) Analytically integrate Eq. (P23.12b) with the initial condition that d = 0 at γ = 0. Evaluate the result at t = 10 to confirm (a).

(c) Use MATLAB to differentiate Eq. (P23.12α) at t = 10.

(d) Analytically differentiate Eq. (P23.12α) at t = 10 to confirm (c).
