Mass is always drawn to other mass. This is what produces the effect of Gravity, which is responsible for pulling the mass downward. When falling, there is one major factor which controls how quickly it falls--friction. The greater the surface area of the object, the greater the friction of air passing it, and slowing it down. The parachute adds a great amount of surface area without much extra mass, so the air-resistance (friction of air against it) is much greater. This causes it's "terminal velocity" (the greatest speed at which it can fall) to decrease dramatically. The end result is that because of the "difficulty" the air has getting around and past the object as it falls, the object dropps much more slowly. Take away the parachute, and it will drop much more quickly.

How does the mass of plasticine on the end of a parachute affect how quickly it falls?
The material of a parachute effects how quickly it opens which corresponds with the total drop time. However the mass of a parachute specifically, with all other variables constant, does not effect the velocity at which it drops.
How mass affect the landing time of parachute?
The mass of an object affects the landing time of a parachute because it influences the rate at which the parachute descends. A heavier object will fall faster than a lighter object, assuming all other factors remain constant. This means that a heavier mass will likely result in a shorter landing time for a parachute.
Do object with more mass descends faster in parachute?
No, objects with more mass do not necessarily descend faster when using a parachute. The rate of descent is influenced more by factors such as the size and design of the parachute, the air resistance, and the gravitational pull on the object.
What are the parts of a parachute?
A parachute typically consists of a canopy (the fabric that catches the air), suspension lines (connecting the canopy to the harness), a harness (where the person or cargo is attached), and sometimes a deployment system (to release the parachute).
How does air resistance and gravity effect parachutes?
Air resistance acts against the force of gravity, slowing down the descent of a parachute. The larger the surface area of the parachute, the more air resistance it creates, which helps to slow down its fall. Gravity, on the other hand, pulls the parachute downwards with a force proportional to the mass of the parachute. Balancing these forces allows the parachute to descend safely and slowly.
Can you give me a sentence using the word parachute?
Because i used my parachute, i didn't die when i fell out of the plane
How are the fastest dragsters stopped?
they are stopped by a parachute that comes out the back

How will the mass under the parachute effect the way it falls?
by ejaculating
Who created bip the clown?
He was made up by me I got the idea when I fell off a cliff without a parachute!
What is the highest distance upwards a person has fell downwards and survived?
A 40 year old woman fell 35,000 feet downwards and survived after her parachute failed to operate
Do object with more mass descends faster in parachute?
No, objects with more mass do not necessarily descend faster when using a parachute. The rate of descent is influenced more by factors such as the size and design of the parachute, the air resistance, and the gravitational pull on the object.
Who was the 1st man to make and successfully use a parachute?
The parachute was first thought of by Leonardo Davinci, but I do not know if he flew it. FUN FACT: google "longest freefall" Holy moly that guy fell for ages!:)
When you pull a cord on parachute do you go back up?
You do go up, relative to the cameraman, but you never actually gain altitude. When the parachute opens you accelerate upwards and you fell exactly the same as if you were accelerated upwards from rest.
Why does a heavy body not fall correspondingly faster than a light body?
Because of the rules of gravity. The equal acceleration assumes a vacuum. If two items of the same mass but different density or surface area are dropped through an atmosphere, fluid dynamics take over as the two items reach "terminal velocity" (the fastest they can fall through the atmosphere based on their mass and surface). A parachute is heavier than a fist sized rock, but the rock will plummet while the parachute floats.
Can you use mass extinction in a sentence?
The dinosaurs fell victim to a mass extinction.
