A skydiver weighing 950 N opens his parachute at the appropriate height from the ground. The air exerts a significant upward drag force, which is initially greater than the weight of the diver. This helps to slow the skydiver down. What is the diver's acceleration (both direction and magnitude in m/s2) if the magnitude of the drag force is 1110 N

Consider an ordinary, helium-filled party balloon with a volume of 2.2 ft3. the lifting force on the balloon due to the outside air is the net resultant of the pressure distribution exerted on the exterior surface of the balloon. using this fact, we can derive archimedes’ principle, namely that the upward force on the balloon is equal to the weight of the air displaced by the balloon. assuming that the balloon is at sea level, where the air density is 0.002377 slug/ft3, calculate the maximum weight that can be lifted by the balloon. note: the molecular weight of air is 28.8 and that of helium is 4.
