SKYDIVING HOMEWORK: Lessons I learned from Dr. Israel Portillo's Physics I Lecture Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This fundamental principle of physics implies that forces always occur in pairs; when one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body exerts an equal and opposite force back on the first body. In the context of rock climbing, when a climber falls, the padded floor exerts an upward force that is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the downward force of the climber's fall, effectively cushioning the impact. For your skydiving homework, this law is crucial in understanding how the skydiver exerts a force on the air as they fall, and the air exerts an equal and opposite force back on the skydiver, affecting their descent speed and stability.
The 82nd Airborne Division, U.S. Army joined by the 3rd and 10th Special Forces Groups, are in the final stages of testing the Family of Weapons Sights – Individual, or FWS-I, for static line and military free fall airborne infiltration.
