Chapter , Problem 25

(choose chapter or problem)

You bail out of the helicopter of Example 2 and immediately pull the ripcord of your parachute. Now k D 1:6 in Eq. (5), so your downward velocity satisfies the initial value problem dv dt D 32 1:6v; v.0/ D 0 (with t in seconds and v in ft/sec). Use Eulers method with a programmable calculator or computer to approximate the solution for 0 5 t 5 2, first with step size h D 0:01 and then with h D 0:005, rounding off approximate vvalues to one decimal place. What percentage of the limiting velocity 20 ft/sec has been attained after 1 second? After 2 seconds?
