The surface area, mass and the shape of the parachute affect the time of fall of the parachutes. Also the height, where the parachute have been dropped from. ( There are more factors that this).

How does gravity and air resistance affect parachutes?
Gravity and air resistance are the main forces acting on a parachute. Parachutes are pulled towards the ground by gravity, and if there was no parachute, the guy attached to the chute would turn into tomato paste. So parachutes are designed to create the maximum amount of drag (which is air resistance) so the whatever attached lands undamaged. So basically, parachutes create air resistance to reduce the effects of gravity
How wavelength frequency and amplitude affect the charasterics?
The wavelength and frequency affect how the way is perceived. In sound it would affect the pitch that you hear, in the visible light spectrum it would affect what color you see. The amplitude would be how easy it is to perceive, it is the intensity (magnitude) of the wave.
How does the shape and mass of an object affect its velocity when sinking through water?
The density of things that sink is greater than the density of water. In the metric system, this would be 1 gram per cm3, so the measure of the mass of the sinking object (in grams) should be greater than the measure of its volume (in cm3).
Does the size of a bubble affect how long it lasts?
I would imagine the density of the original substance that created the bubble would affect the duration of it rather than the size of the bubble itself. Since the larger the bubble the smaller the density of its 'wall' would suggest the simple answer to your question is yes, because the atmosphere is more likely to break the thin wall.Although if the substance that created the bubble was larger in the first place or more dense than that would be the major contributing factor in its duration rather than the size of the bubble it produces.
How does the force of gravitationbetween two objects change when the distance between them is reduced to half?
In that case, the force would increase by a factor of 4. Gravity obeys an inverse-square law.In that case, the force would increase by a factor of 4.

What factor would affect how hot or cold something feels to your hand?
the factor that will affect it is temperature.
What doesn't affect rate of descent for a parachute?
Parachutes are interesting aircraft. The major retarding force of classical round parachutes is drag. Weight and drag determine their rate-of-descent. But air spills out of them because they oscillate, too. Since the 1960's parachutes have been designed that acheive lift from their forward motion.

Where do Scorpio's endless parachutes come from?
His endless supply of parachutes can not have any semi-realistic explanation, it is simply the scripting of the game so you don't have to worry about whether you have a parachute. After all, it would be annoying to run out of parachutes or wait for one to recharge.
Which of these is most likely to be an extraneous factor that would affect test scores?
A. Distractions in the classroom
What do the parachutes symbolize in The Hunger Games?
In the Hunger Games (the games not the book) parachutes symbolize gifts. If you were a tribute in the Games and were sent a parachute, you would get a gift. In the books however, the parachutes could symbolize many things. But at the end of the series, it would be safe to say that whenever Katniss thinks of the silver parachutes, she will think of her sister Prim (Read book 3 and you will see why).

What is the quadratic equation used for?
It is used to solve quadratic equations that cannot be factored. Usually you would factor a quadratic equation, identify the critical values and solve, but when you cannot factor you utilize the quadratic equation.
