A person is parachute jumping. During the time between when she leaps out of the plane and when she opens her chute, her altitude is given by an equation of the form y = b - c ( t+ ke^ -t/k) where e is the base of natural logarithms, and b, c, and k are constants. Because of air resistance, her velocity does not increase at a steady rate as it would for an object falling in vacuum.
(a) What units would b, c, and k have to have for the equation to make sense?
(b) Find the person's velocity, v , as a function of time. [You will need to use the chain rule, and the fact that d^ex)=dx=d^ex
(c) Use your answer from part (b) to get an interpretation of the constant c. [Hint:e^-x approaches large values for x]
(d) Find the person's acceleration, a, as a function of time.
(e) Use your answer from part (d) to show that if she waits long, enough to open her chute, her acceleration will become very small.

Cells in the nervous system have a potential difference of 70 mv across the cell membrane separating the interior of the cell from the extracellular fluid. this potential difference is maintained by ion pumps that move charged ions across the membrane. is this an emf? select the correct answer and explanation. 1)no. the ion pumps cannot separate charges; thus, they cannot create a potential difference. 2)yes. the ion pumps cannot separate charges, but they still can create a potential difference. 3)yes. the ion pumps can actively separate charge; thus, they can create a potential difference. 4)no. the ion pumps can separate charges, but they cannot create a potential difference.
