To solve the problem step by step, we will break down the process of finding the height from which the parachutist bailed out. ### Step 1: Calculate the velocity after falling 50 meters The parachutist falls freely for 50 meters. We can use the equation of motion to find the velocity after falling this distance. The equation we will use is: \[ v^2 = u^2 + 2gh \] Where: ...
