Asked by Madison
What is the magnitude of the acceleration of two falling sky divers (mass 149 kg including parachute) when the upward force of air resistance is equal to one fourth of their weight?
(in m/s^2)
After popping open the parachute, the divers descend leisurely to the ground at constant speed. What now is the force of air resistance on the sky divers and their parachute?

Madison, Ashley, cait, Tanner, et al. You need to show some work on your part. This is not a homework dump site.

I had a problem with this too, though.
For the first part I did basically g/4 ( M x g/4 = M x a) which should have been 2.45m/s^2 but apparently that's wrong, and I can't figure out why.
