How does the mass of plasticine on the end of a parachute affect how quickly it falls?
The material of a parachute effects how quickly it opens which corresponds with the total drop time. However the mass of a parachute specifically, with all other variables constant, does not effect the velocity at which it drops.
Does gravity effect a parachute?
Yes it does. It has mass and like all other objects it is attracted to other masses. Throwing a parachute out of a plane will demonstrate this. It will head for Earth.
What happens when it is unclear whether an issue falls under the jurisdiction of the federal or state government?
Mass Effect is the best game trilogy of all time
Why the mass with no parachute fell fastest?
Mass is always drawn to other mass. This is what produces the effect of Gravity, which is responsible for pulling the mass downward. When falling, there is one major factor which controls how quickly it falls--friction. The greater the surface area of the object, the greater the friction of air passing it, and slowing it down. The parachute adds a great amount of surface area without much extra mass, so the air-resistance (friction of air against it) is much greater. This causes it's "terminal velocity" (the greatest speed at which it can fall) to decrease dramatically. The end result is that because of the "difficulty" the air has getting around and past the object as it falls, the object dropps much more slowly. Take away the parachute, and it will drop much more quickly.
Causes objects to fall with different accelerations and speeds?
gravity, drag, if an object has a high mass number it falls quicker and if it has a large surface area it falls slower. Think about it this way, if you throw a parachute unopened it will hit the ground before an opened parachute. There are many conditions to take accountable like wind, resistance or drag, and sometimes temperature like in a hot air ballon.
Is mass effect 2 appropriate for children?
No, Mass Effect 2 is rated by the Office of Film and Literature Classification (OFLC) as MA 15+. This makes Mass Effect 2 NOT suitable for people under the age of fifteen (15).
Can you take off blood in mass effect for 360?
Should be under 'Options' or 'Settings'.
Does kaiden die in mass effect 2?
If he died in Mass Effect 1 then he is not in Mass Effect 2. If he survived Mass Effect 1 he shows up in Mass Effect 2 but he can not be killed.
What is the effect of mass extinction?
The effect of mass extinction is extinction, death of a mass
What are the parts of a parachute?
there are three main parts that come with a parachute. there's the chute, the draglines, and the weight or mass (could be a human). then there's also the hole in the top of the chute.
Will be Mass Effect 3?
Yes, there will be a Mass effect 3. even if your Shepard died, there will be a mass effect 3.
What is the slowest parachute made of?
Parachutes are not rated by their speed. A parachute works by increasing the air resistance of a suspended falling body or object. The greater the mass of the object the larger the area of the parachute must be to reduce the speed to an acceptable level.
