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

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).
Why speed of parachutes becomes constant?
Terminal velocity. When the parachutes cannot fall any faster.
How does a parachute effect free fall?
If the parachute is too small, then the load it is carrying will fall faster, the same thing is with big parachutes. If it is medium sized it will fall at a desirable rate than a larger or smaller parachute.

Did the bomb have a parachute?

Do wings or parachutes protect something when dropped?
If you mean by wings slowing its fall. Yes they do the impact is less.
What do the military use parachutes for?
to travel downwards beneath the gravity of the atmosphere and break a persons immediate fall.
