Question: Terminal velocity a skydiver leaps from the gondola of a hot-air balloon. As she free-falls, air resistance, which is proportional to her velocity, builds up to a point where it balances the force due to gravity. The resulting motion may be described in terms of her velocity as follows: starting at rest (zero velocity), her velocity increases and approaches a constant velocity, called the terminal velocity. Sketch a graph of her velocity √ versus time t.
