Why did the Apollo 13 spacecraft have a parachute?
The same reason why all spacecrafts have parachutes: During reentry into the Earth's atmosphere, the spacecraft goes extremely fast. And if there are people in the spacecraft and no parachute, they would slam into the water at that speed and it would be like hitting concrete. So without a parachute, everyone on the spacecraft would be killed.

What are the advantages of the parachute used in water rockets?
If you have a parachute, then it allows your water rocket to land safely.
Is parachute water resistance?
Yes, parachute fabric is typically water-resistant due to the materials used in its construction. This water resistance helps protect the parachute from getting waterlogged and heavy during a jump, which could affect its performance. However, it is important to note that no parachute is completely waterproof and prolonged exposure to water can still impact its functionality.
Can tsunamis die down before hitting land?
No, tsunamis do not die down before hitting land. In fact, they can increase in height and intensity as they approach the coastline due to the shallowing of the water depth, causing the wave to rise up dramatically.

How do you prevent death if your parachute does not open?
You land in the water! (How does one LAND in WATER?) Aside from the semantic issues, impacting the water at 120 mph (your terminal velocity in a spread-eagle posture) is as likely to result in death as hitting soft soil or hard rock. The course of action that you need to follow is to avoid hitting anything at 120 mph. That is accomplished by deploying your emergency or reserve chute. Before you deploy the reserve chute you must cut away the failed chute so as not to get them entangled. Safety begins on the ground where you pre-flight all of your gear and receive appropriate training. If you are planning to hit the water, be sure to, right before you hit, straighten your body and enter feet first with your legs crossed. That will keep your legs from being folded up around your ears.

Why do people die when skydiving?
Usually because they hit the ground or water at a much greater speed than was expected. That would be as a result of a malfunction of the main parachute and/or reserve, hitting another skydiver's open canopy whilst still in free fall or trying a radical manoeuvre under canopy too close to the ground. Some have died as a result of hitting an object (such as a building, pylons or an airborne aircraft), but it is extremely rare.It's actually quite difficult to kill yourself with modern equipment as even if you were somehow rendered unconscious or couldn't be 'bothered' to open your parachute, the reserve would open automatically if you went past 750' at too great a speed.Forget the myth about people 'dying from shock' before they hit the ground - it's simply not true.
