How does size affect the speed of a falling parachute?
The larger the size of the parachute the more air resistance is caused because its larger surface traps more air. Becuase there is more air resistance the larger the parachute the slower it travels to the ground. The smaller the parachute the faster it falls to the ground for the opposite reason.
How does the size of the parachute affect the time it takes for the parachute to reach the ground?
It affects the time taken to reach the ground because the larger the area of the parachute the slower its velocity will be and consequently changes how long it takes to reach the ground. The larger parachutes will obtain far more air then smaller parachutes and have more air resistance and drag force.

What height do skydivers open their parachutes?
Around 3,000 feet above ground. This is to allow enough time to perform your emergency procedures in case of emergency. But also to do your canopy (parachute) checks and to position yourself for your landing. In South Africa the rule is that you must have an open parachute on 1,200 feet above ground. Depending on your speed and type, size and pack of your parachute, it may require anything from 300 to 800 feet for you parachute to open.
