A 60.0 kg skydiver is accelerating downward in the presence of air. the force of the air pushing on the skydiver is 400 N. draw the force diagram for the skydiver

1) Weight of the skydiver will exert net force of 600 N downwards

2) Force due to air is opposite to the motion of skydiver which is 400 N upwards

Explanation:

When skydiver jumps into the air then force due to air is opposite to the motion

So let say the diver is moving downwards with some speed then downwards weight of the diver is 600 N

And the force due to air is opposite to the motion and inclined upwards

This force is F = 400 N

Now net downward force will accelerate the diver downwards by

F = 600 - 400 = 200 N

i wanna say it’s between b and d, leaning more towards b.
