A student decides to make some extra money during a snow day. As the neighborhood kids are outside sledding, the student offers to pull the students to the top of the hill for one dollar per ride. The sled-puller noticed that it was taking more time to pull older children to the top than with the younger children even though they were pulling with the same force. Explain why some kids took longer to pull to the top of the hill then other kids despite pulling with the same force. Be sure to address the following for 2 points each:

Identify the formula used to calculate the force of each pull up the hill.
Identify what was different about the older children compared to the younger children that affected the trips up the hill
Explain how this demonstrates Newton's Second Law of Motion

1point) a skydiver weighing 130 lb (including equipment) falls vertically downward from an altitude of 14,000 ft and opens the parachute after 20 s of free fall. assume that the force of air resistance, which is directed opposite to the velocity, is of magnitude 0.85|v|0.85|v| when the parachute is closed and is of magnitude 17|v|17|v| when the parachute is open, where the velocity vv is measured in ft/s. assume that acceleration due to gravity has magnitude 32 ft/s/s; remember that weight is the product of mass and gravitational acceleration. find the speed of the skydiver when the parachute opens. speed is 150.6121788 ft/s find the skydiver's height when the parachute opens. height is 2338.98591 ft find the limiting velocity vlvl after the parachute opens. (think about whether this should be positive or negative.) vl=vl= 7.647 ft/s
