Perform the computation for parachutist of mass \( 70 \mathrm{~kg} \) jumps out of a stationary hot air balloon. The drag coefficient is equal to \( 13 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{s} \). but use equation: \[ v_{\left(t_{i}+1\right)}=v\left(t_{i}\right)+\left[g-\frac{c}{m} v\left(t_{i}\right)\right]\left(t_{i+1}-t_{i}\right) \] to compute the velocity. Compute the velocity to \( t=12 \mathrm{~s} \), with a step size of: (a) 1 and (b) \( 0.5 \mathrm{~s} \). Can you make any statement regarding the errors of the calculation based on the results?
