Answer 2

Decent rate under an open and properly functioning parachute can vary widely depending on the size of the parachute, weight of the jumper, and attitude of the wing among other factors. Almost all sport jumpers use square or rectangle shaped parachutes which fly through the air like a glider. When flying straight forward with both control lines pulled down, the parachute will fly slowly forward and descend at the lowest rate. With only one control line pulled down, the parachute will turn toward the direction of the line pulled down and increase its descent rate. A very large student parachute with a medium weight jumper will descend at a rate of 10-15 feet per second when allowed to fly forward with no control input (full flight). However, in order to land safely and softly a jumper will flare the canopy just like an airplane. By pulling down on both control lines at the same time about 10 to 20 feet above the ground, a jumper can decrease the descent rate to 0 just as their feet touch the ground. More experienced jumpers using very small high performance parachutes have reached descent rates equal to freefall speed (120 mph).

Answer 3

This greatly depends on the exit height as well as the opening height. The first depends on cloud cover, plane and pilot. The latter depends on the experience and comfort level of the diver. A standard dive would be from 13,500 ft. to about 4,500 feet and would take about one minute.

Answer 4

about 30mph depending on the wind

Answer 5

120mph
