A 60 kilogram and a 90 kilogram skydiver jump from an airplane at an altitude of 6000 meter, both falling in the pike position. Make some assumption on their frontal areas and calculate their terminal velocities. Find how long will it take for each skydiver to reach the ground (assuming the time to reach terminal velocity is small)? Suppose all values are accurate to three significant digits.
