In february 1955, a paratrooper fell 360 m from an airplane without being able to open his chute but happened to land in snow, suffering only minor injuries. assume that his speed at impact was 60 m/s (terminal speed), that his mass (including gear) was 80 kg, and that the force on him from the snow was at the survivable limit of 1.2 x 10^5n.
(a) what is the minimum depth of snow that would have stopped him safely?
(b) what is the magnitude of the impulse on him from the snow?
