Question 1103724: This time he has a mass of 980kg and the airline company said he was too heavy to have a parachute so he jumped without a parachute (again). If you had a starting height of 1km off the ground and an acceleration rate of 9m/s when you jump, what is your potential and kinetic energy when you are halfway through your freefall and before your death. Answer by Fombitz(32388) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
When he starts he has a potential energy of,
When he's at 500m, his potential energy is half of that,
and the kinetic energy is now the other half,
