A) + 2.93 times 10^5 J

B) 0J

C) Answer is not obtainable, because insufficient information about the skydiver's speed is given.

    The answer is A

    Explanation:

    Work done = mgh

    where mass, m = 92kg, g = 9.81, height, h = 325m

    Therefore,

    W = mgh

    W=92*9.81*325

    W=293319

    W=2.93*10>5
