What statements are true regarding the skydivers jump and fall to Earth? Regardless of their weight, before opening their parachutes, the guys felt at the same velocity.
According to the data, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s/s.
Once the parachutes were opened, all five skydivers continued to fall at exactly the same velocity
Opening the parachutes provided air resistance and changed their velocity
By free-falling for a longer period of time, the skydivers would have changed the acceleration due to
gravity

Regardless of their weight, before opening their parachutes, the guys fell at the same velocity.

According to the data, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s/s

Opening the parachutes provided air resistance and changed their velocity.

Explanation:

When in free fall, mass does not affect the speed of moving objects (only gravitational force is acting upon it).

If you take a look at the data, you can see that the velocity is increasing at a constant rate in intervals of 9.8. This is the acceleration which makes sense because acceleration is the change of velocity divided by time.

Think about it: parachutes slow down the object that is falling because it creates a barrier between the object falling and the gravitational force it encounters. The change in the effects of the gravitational force will alter the velocity.

I hope this was helpful. Have a nice day!
