What else can I help you with?
Who would fall faster at a short distance small parachute or large?
a small parachute becouse it has less air ressitance meaning it traps less air than a big parachute.
Why would a small parachutes fall fastest?
A small parachute would fall faster then a larger one because there is less air resistance trying to push the small one up but the larger one has a lot of air resistance because there is more area for the air to push up. Hope this helped :P
How does weight affect a parachute?
weight would affect a parachute if you put a 500lb man on a parachute and dropped him gravity would make him travel faster towards the ground compared to if you placed a 92lb boy on a parachute as the parachute applies the same force to both of them but the man weighs more so takes more to slow down and therefor lands down on the ground first By Alister Kelly
Can you use a umbrella for a parachute?
No umbrella could survive that kind of stress; they are designed to resist the force of raindrops, not falling people. Most bags also would be much too small and too weak, however, a large strong bag could indeed be used as a parachute - that's basically what a parachute is (although a para-foil is a more sophisticated design).
What size of parachute makes a free fall slower?
Depends what you mean by "better". A bigger parachute provides more wind resistant so if you were to jump out of a plane, you would want to go big. If your talking speed (like a running parachute) you would want a small parachute to accommodate how much harder you want to make your run
Would a parachute be balanced when it falls?
As long as it is not accelerating (going faster and faster, or slower and slower), the forces on the parachute are balanced. Initially, the parachute will accelerate - in this case the forces are unbalanced. It will continue accelerating, until the force of gravitation is balanced by the force of resistance.
If you were to parachute in Colorado would you fall slower or faster than in a hotter climate?
In a hotter climate, there are more conventional currents thus meaning that there will be more hot air rising which will effectively slow down the parachute. So in Colorado it will fall faster than in a hotter climate.
Would a Parachute work on the moon?
A parachute works on Earth by effectively 'trapping air' inside of it, creating a large surface area and so a large amount of wind resistance or friction. As there is no atmosphere on the moon, there is no air to be trapped and therefore no friction. So no, a parachute would not work on the moon.A parachute works using air resistence. There is no air on the moon. Therefore a parachute would only pull you down faster. If ur planning on going to the moon i suggest you try a jetpack.
How does the shape of dolphin help them?
It gives them hydrodynamics so that the can "cut" through the water and move faster than, say, a parachute would.
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).
What moves faster large molecules or small molecules?
given the same amount of kinetic energy a smaller molecule would have a high velocity according to k=mv^2
What are the balanced and unbalanced forces of a parachute?
In a parachute system, the balanced force is the air resistance (drag) acting against the force of gravity. The drag force slows down the descent of the parachute, creating a balanced force that allows it to glide safely to the ground. An unbalanced force would occur if the parachute experiences a sudden shift in wind direction or if there is a malfunction with the parachute system, causing it to descend faster or slower than intended.
