Yes, when it is windy, parachutes can fall faster due to the increased wind resistance and turbulence affecting the canopy. This can cause the parachute to be more difficult to control and potentially result in a faster descent. Pilots must adjust their techniques to account for the windy conditions.

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 is the manipulated variable in a controlled experiment in which a scientist is studying how long it takes a parachutes of different sizes to fall to ground?

The manipulated variable in this experiment would be the size of the parachutes. By changing the size of the parachutes, the scientist can observe how it affects the time it takes for the parachutes to fall to the ground.

The variable being studied is the size of the parachutes.


How does air speed affects rate of decent of round canopy parachutes?

Increasing air speed will increase the rate of descent of round canopy parachutes due to a higher amount of air resistance acting against the parachute. This increased resistance creates more drag force on the parachute, causing it to fall faster.


Why does smaller parachutes hit the ground before bigger parachutes?

If you have two parachutes, one big and one small, the biggest one will take more time then the other parachute. This happens because there is more room in the parachute which is causing air to go in side, which is air resistance. The smaller parachute has a lot of air resistance because it is smaller and there is less room for the air to go inside. However, the bigger balloon has little air resistance because it has more room in it for the air to get inside. The air is pushing the balloon up so it will fall slower.

The reason parachutes were designed was so that people could fall at any height and not get hurt at all.

If you put a hole in a parachute why would it fall quicker?

Parachutes are designed to catch the air therefore slowing you down on impact. If there happened to be a hole, the air passes through it, making your impact to the ground faster.
