If the proper mechanics are applied, and the paper isn't holding a heavy object, then I'd imagine it might be possible. The first plane was made from paper (as well as other things, of course), so give it a go if that's what you were thinking :)

No a bag is not a good parachute especially a paper bag
make a big parachute
We did a parachute experiment at school, and we investigated 2 variables. They were the canopy size and the material of the canopy. We found that the bigger the canopy, the slower the parachute will go. Also, the lighter the material, the slower it will go. Well if you use house hold materials you could use a grocery bag , string , and a paper cup to put things in and you'll also have to use a knife to put holes on please have an adult with you. warning- don't put any thing over 3 pounds in the paper cup. OR. Heat rises so if you put a candle at the bottom the parachute could stay in one place or actually RISE!
Make the parachute wider/bigger or make the parachute deeper. Make the thing pulling it down lighter. Hope this helps. =)
Freeze it and put it on the roller just before a "Prune Party".
The first parachute was made from silk. AndrΓ©-Jacques Garnerin, who invented the parachute in 1797, used a silk parachute to make successful jumps.
the circular parachute 134.88m/s its average descent followed by a parallelogram one
i can only use a canson paper size A2 , no glue , just paper. it has to be able to carry a taco from a 2 story building and land without breaking. Any ideas would be great.
For a middle school project, you should design a parachute that is the right size for a small action figure. You can make the parachute out of an old pair of parachute pants.
You can make a parachute stay in the air longer by increasing its surface area, either by using a larger parachute or by adding more fins or panels to the canopy. You can also try adjusting the weight of the payload attached to the parachute to help it descend more slowly. Finally, make sure the parachute is properly packed and deployed to maximize its effectiveness in the air.
You have a small person under the small parachute.
A parachute must have suspended weight in order to open. If you have no weight loading the parachute will fail.
