How does the force of gravity on a cliff-diver who jumps off a cliff with a parachute after he first jumps off compare to the force of gravity on him while he is standing on the edge?

The mutual forces of attraction between him and the Earth will not change, no matter
where he goes, how he moves, or what position he assumes, as long as he remains at
roughly the same distance from the center of the Earth.

How does gravity allow a parachute to go up into the air?
Gravity and parachute fight and newton wins!
Compare the effects of gravity and air resistance on a falling skydiver before and after she opens her parachute.?
-- The force of gravity is unchanged before and after.-- The force of air resistance on the skydiver is greater before, and less after,because she is falling slower after the parachute opens.-- The effect on her of air resistance is greater after the parachute is open. Theincreased air resistance itself acts on the parachute, and its effect is transferredto the skydiver through her harness.

Why does a parachute fall to the ground?
Because of gravity
Explain how a parachute works using the terms air resistance surface area and gravity?
A parachute works as the gravity allows the parachute to go up into the air, then the surface area is covered with air resistance.
Does the third law of motion affect a parachute?
yes it does cause if there was no gravity then ur parachute would be going up
What is the name of the force acting on a man who is descending with a parachute?
"Gravity" is.
How does the sun's gravity compare to earths gravity?
The sun gravity is stronger
How does gravity on mars compare gravity on earth?
argon
What force stops you from hitting the ground to hard when you skydive?
Gravity and your parachute..... and the pull.... :)
How does the force of gravity on Jupiter compare to the force of gravity?
They are identical.
What two forces act on a parachute when it falla can you draw a diagram?
The force of gravity and the force of the friction of the parachute moving through the air. I can not draw a diagram on this forum.
