Air resistance increases.
Air resistance increases and terminal velocity decreases when the parachute has opened.
Once a skydiver jumps off the plane, they will begin picking up speed. However, as the speed of the skydiver increases, the amount of air resistance acting upon them will also increase. The skydiver will continue to accelerate while his or her weight is greater than the air resistance. When the force of the air resistance becomes equal to the weight of the skydiver, the skydiver will stop accelerating and will continue falling at a constant speed, this is known as the terminal velocity. While travelling at terminal velocity, the skydiver will be able to adjust his or her body position in a way that will increase or decrease the air resistance and allow the diver to alter their speed. Releasing his or her parachute will drastically increase the amount of air resistance and therefore slow their descent significantly.
it depends on person skydiving
The sky diver jumped off the airplane and experienced air resistance.
Air resistance increases.
Air resistance increases and terminal velocity decreases when the parachute has opened.
Increasing the surface area, producing drag.
The force that changes is air resistance and the force that stay the same is gravity.
To start with there is gravitational attraction. As soon as the skydiver starts falling, (s)he will experience the drag force due to air resistance. The gravitational force is essentially constant but the drag increases as the diver's velocity increases until it equals gravity. The diver is the falling at terminal velocity and will continue to do so until the parachute is operated.
Only if he's wearing one.A skydiver will come down, one way or another, due to Earth's gravity. The parachute is to avoid him falling too fast. If he doesn't have a parachute, he will probably die when he crashes on the ground.
It's also known as the force of air resistance.
The force down remains constant.force down (newtons) = (mass (kg) * acceleration due to gravity ((m/s)/s) ).The force up varies with velocity and drag coefficient ( which increases significantly when the chute opens).force up (newtons) = velocity2 * drag coefficient

No, it will actually add to the total weight.
Gravity doesn't change.
As the "diver" descends, air density inside the diver's capsule increases as it is compressed.
