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.
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
Would a parachute work in no gravity and why?
Yes it would work. But there would be nothing for it to work against, because there is no gravitational force.If there was no gravity and some other force working on the parachute, such us it being pulled behind a car, then if there was air or another fluid present, then there would be drag, just as in a gravity environment.
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 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.
What effect would opening a parachute have on a skydiver's fall?
Only if they have a heart attack, but not likely.
What would happen if you tried to parachute from a hovering spaceship on the moon?
A parachute requires air (or an atmosphere) to work. So the parachute would be useless and fall at the same rate as you. Depending on your height, you would probably sustain severe injury and die.
How would a parachute open on mars?
A parachute would open ABOVE Mars, just as it would above our planet
What is the apex of a round parachute?
The apex would be the center of the round parachute.
Who would fall faster a man with a small parachute or a man with a large parachute?
The man with a small parachute will fall faster.
What would happen if you didn't have divers?
If the world did not have any divers, it would be havoc! There would be no knowledge of the moss on the rocks on the bottom of the ocean. Oh no! 'o'
Does the size of a parachute affect its performance?
Yes! I would not want to jump with a miniaturized parachute...
Before a diver dives will he will take a deep breath or hyperventilate?
Free divers do but scuba divers do not need to. Scuba divers take their air with them and would have no need to hyperventilate.
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
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.
Would a parachute work on a lander to earths moon?
No, a parachute would not work on a lander descending to the Moon because there is no atmosphere on the Moon to create the needed drag for the parachute to slow down the descent. Other methods such as retro-rockets or thrusters are used for landing on the Moon.
Does the third law of motion affect a parachute?
yes it does cause if there was no gravity then ur parachute would be going up
