A skydiver jumps from a slow-moving airplane. The skydiver's mass is 82.5 kg. After falling for some distance, she reaches a terminal speed of 54.9 m/s.

(a) What is her acceleration (in m/s2) when her speed is 30.0 m/s? magnitude m/s2 direction

(b) What is the drag force (in N) on the skydiver when her speed is 54.9 m/s? magnitude N direction

(c) What is the drag force (in N) on the skydiver when her speed is 30.0 m/s? magnitude N direction
