1.1 Use calculus to solve Eq. (1.9) for the case where the initial
velocity, v(0) is nonzero.
1.2 Repeat Example 1.2. Compute the velocity to t = 10 s, with a
step size of (a) 1 and (b) 0.5 s. Can you make any statement regarding
the errors of the calculation based on the results?
1.3 Rather than the linear relationship of Eq. (1.7), you might
choose to model the upward force on the parachutist as a secondorder
relationship,
FU = −c
v2
