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
Identify one factor that would affect the time of a parachutes fall?
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).
Can you able to see all of the forces that affect an object?
no,we can not see all the forces that affect an object.
What forces affect motion?
Unbalanced.
What does gravity have to do with parachutes?
Air makes parachutes possible. Gravity makes them necessary.

How do unbalanced forces affect forces?
Forces don't affect forces. FORCES act on OBJECTS.If there is an unbalanced force, that means that the sum of all forces acting on an object is not zero.
What forces will affect your tower?

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.
How big are parachutes?
Parachutes come in varying sizes.
What forces can affect an objects velocity but not the speed?
Centripetal forces can.
