A skydiver is using wind to land on a target that is 50 m away horizontally. The skydiver starts from a height of 70 m and is falling vertically at a constant velocity of 7.0 m/s downward with their parachute open (terminal velocity). A horizontal gust of wind helps push them towards the target. What must be their total speed if they want to just hit their target?
