Aparachutist is in free fall at a rate of 200 km/h when he opens his parachute at an altitude of 600 m. following a rapid and constant deceleration, he then descends at a constant rate of 60 km/h from 586 m to 30 m, where he maneuvers the parachute into the wind to further slow his descent. the parachutist lands with a negligible downward velocity.
1. determine the time required for the parachutist to land after opening his parachute.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
