A parachutist is falling through the air with a downwards speed of 15m s-1. The wind is horizontal and is 8 m s-1 east. What is the magnitude of the resultant velocity of the parachutist?
net velocity of the person
v^2 = 15^2+18^2
v = 23.4307 m/s

Comment before rate in case any doubt, will reply for sure.. goodluck

A bus is traveling at constant speed of 8 m/s due west. A parachutist is falling at a constant speed of 6 m/s as seen by a man on the ground. A passenger in the bus measures the speed of the parachutist (in m/s) to be
Suppose a 2 kg object is falling through the air and accelerating downwards at 8 m/s2. Taking g = 10 m/s2 What is the magnitude and direction of the force of air resistance on it? 2N downward 2N upward 1N downward 1N upward
Wind is blowing at 15m/s due east relative to earth. If an airplane is flying a velocity of 28m/s northbound realtive to earth. What is the velocity of the airplane realtive to the wind (find magnitude and direction)? (show work)
A plane flies with a velocity of 52 m/s east through a12 m/s cross wind blowing the plane south. Find the magnitude and direction (relative to due east) of the resultant velocity at which it travels.
A plane is headed south at a speed of 115 m/s (speed relative to the air). There is a 25.0-m/s wind speed blowing 32° north of east. What is the ground speed of the plane (magnitude and direction)? Ground speed: m/s Direction: O east of south
if the plane maintains its air speed of 240 km an
hour, but the wind decreases, what is the wind speed if the planes
velocity with respect to Earth is 17 degrees east of North?
headed due north, and me airspeed inb cator shows nat he plane 1S moving through the air at 240 km/h. If there is a wind of 100 km/h from west to east, what is the velocity of the aircraft relative to the earth? and we...
The magnitude of a velocity vector is called speed.
Suppose that a wind is blowing from the direction N45°W at a speed
of 50 km/h. (This means that the direction from which the wind
blows is 45° west of the northerly direction.) A pilot is steering
a plane in the direction N60°E at an airspeed (speed in still air)
of 100 km/h. The true course, or track, of the
plane is the direction of the resultant of the velocity vectors...
A parachutist with a camera descends in free fall at a speed of 10 m/s. The parachutist releases the camera at an altitude of 50 m. (a) How long does it take the camera to reach the ground? (b) What is the velocity of the camera just before it hits the ground?
An 88-kg parachutist descends through a vertical height of 380 m with constant speed. Find the increase in entropy produced by the parachutist, assuming the air temperature is 21°C.
An airplane is flying North with a airspeed of 200 m/s (i.e. the velocity relative to the air). A strong wind is blowing East at 50 m/s. What is the airplane’s resultant velocity (magnitude and direction) relative to the ground?
