How does gravity allow a parachute to go up into the air?
Gravity pulls the parachute down towards the ground. When the parachute catches air as it falls, it creates air resistance that slows down the descent, allowing the parachute to glide gently to the ground. So gravity doesn't make the parachute go up into the air, but rather helps control its descent.
How does a parachute reduce the effect of gravity?
A parachute reduces speed from the air moving up hitting the canvas and having nowhere to go but to the left and right, its like a cushion. You imagine a car going along at 100km/h and then hitting a wall, that is pushing one force against another, something has to give or slow down. If the car is going fast enough the wall will break but the vehicle will most likely be crumpled beyond repair. Therefore a parachute is pitting one amiable force against another amiable force therefore slowing a persons (or whatever else) descent.
After opening the parachute do you go up?
No. In many movies it appears that someone opening a parachute flies up in the air. However, this is because of the perspective of the camera, which continues falling while the person slows down. Gravity continues to pull the person down to the ground, the parachute only slows them down.
Do sky divers go up when a parachute opens?
Sky divers do not go up, but they do undergo deceleration due to the increased drag incurred by the parachute being suddenly opened. Since skydivers, when being filmed by a cameraman, release their parachute first, there is a relative acceleration between the cameraman and the skydiver, creating the illusion that the skydiver is travelling up.
How will punching a hole in a parachute affect the rate at which it falls?
Punching a hole in a parachute will decrease the surface area and disrupt the airflow, causing the parachute to fall faster. The hole will reduce the air resistance acting on the parachute, resulting in a faster descent.
How changing the weight on a parachute makes it go slower?
A parachute must have suspended weight in order to open. If you have no weight loading the parachute will fail.
What does the vent on the top of the parachute do?
The vent on top of the parachute helps air go through. If you didn't have a vent at the top you would be floating in the same place. The vent makes the parachute go down slowly but not fast enough to where you would drop.
when you throw a ball at awall, what force makes it go for ward?
kinetic energy makes it go forward
What makes you deem that you're being ignored?
You know that you are being ignored when you go skydiving, die from a foul parachute, and are never talked about again.
What makes the governors go up and down?
centrifugal force
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 does a parachute enable a person to jump without getting hurt?
Well, when the parachute is opened, and you jump, the air gets in and pushes the parachute, trying to make it go up, while gravity is working to push it down, which makes you slow down and land safely.
What makes the earth go round the Sun?
