Answer:
The parachute to open in 15 sec.
Explanation:
Given that,
Velocity = 120 km/hr
Height = 1000 m
If his parachute must open 500. m above the ground.
We need to calculate the time for parachute to open
Using formula of time
[tex]v=\dfrac{d}{t}[/tex]
[tex]t=\dfrac{d}{v}[/tex]
Where, d = distance
t = time
v = velocity
Put the value into the formula
[tex]t=\dfrac{500}{120\times\dfrac{5}{18}}[/tex]
[tex]t=15\ sec[/tex]
Hence, The parachute will be open in 15 sec.
