A skydiver of mass m jumps from a hot air balloon and falls a distance d before reaching a terminal velocity of magnitude v. assume that the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity is g. part a what is the work wd done on the skydiver, over the distance d, by the drag force of the air? express the work in terms of d, v, m, and the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity g.

    Because the diver is at terminal velocity, there is no change in velocity. But because there is still a force applied but no change in velocity, that means that there is an equal force applied in the opposite direction. That means the Force of the drag is equal to the force of gravity.
