Answer 1

Hello mate!✌

Ans a. The force responsible for his downwards motion is gravitational force

It is non-contact force

Ans b. No,the man will come down with different speed as parachute opposes thr motion by air presssure,man will come down with faster speed because he will experience less pressure

Hope this helps

Answer 2

Explanation:

5. A. Force of gravity . It is non contact force .

B. Without a parachute , the man will come down with fastest speed . Air drag works in presence of parachute , and reduces the speed . But negligible a drag works in absence of parachute .
