The simplest way to make a parachute for a small toy is to take a handkerchief and some string. Cut the string into five equal lengths, and tie four of them to the corners of the handkerchief, being careful to keep the tails equal in length. Then tie the four ends evenly spaced along the fifth string. Tie the fifth string round the toy, making sure the four strings tied to it are still equally spaced. That will give you a rudimentary parachute.

Parachutes are not rated by their speed. A parachute works by increasing the air resistance of a suspended falling body or object. The greater the mass of the object the larger the area of the parachute must be to reduce the speed to an acceptable level.

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


How can a parachute relate to real life?

All parachutes are designed for one fundamental purpose: to slow the gravity-driven fall of an object -- often a person, sometimes inanimate cargo -- through the air. ... The greater the drag generated by a parachute, the more slowly a given object attached to that parachute will descend to Earth.

What is parachute?

A parachute is a device used to slow the descent of a person or object from a high altitude by creating drag against the air. It typically consists of a large fabric canopy that is attached to a harness worn by the user. Parachutes are commonly used in activities like skydiving, military operations, and emergency situations.


Can air resistance be helpful?

Air resistance can be helpful in certain situations, such as when it is used to slow down a moving object like a parachute during descent. In this case, air resistance helps to reduce the speed of the object and prevent it from falling too quickly.
