Skydiving

To dream that you are in a parachute, indicates that you are protected during a time in which many risks and turmoil surround you. You have a sense of security. Alternatively, the dream implies that it is time to bail out of a situation or abandon an old idea or habit. To dream that you have difficulties with a parachute, suggests that you will be let down by someone you relied on and trusted

why skydiving requires more cooperation of participants than Freeflying does

To use the Ski Jump you just have to ask Dean, who is by the Ski Jump.

The Earth's gravity exerts a constant pulling force on any falling object making it go faster (accelerate)

Only if they have a heart attack, but not likely.

When he or she wants the parachute to open

A parachute is an umbrella-like shape of material from which a person hangs by lines. It is used to allow a person to jump from an aeroplane, balloon, etc, and to safely land on the ground. No gas is involved, apart from the atmosphere the parachutist descends through.

The pilot will usually slow down the aircraft as much as possible when the skydivers jump out. This makes it easier to jump out and reduces the chance of someone hitting the tailplane as the plane is pointing slightly downwards.

On small aircraft, the speed will probably be between 70 and 100mph.

The minimum age for skydiving is 16 years. For those less than 18 years old, a signed letter from a Parent or Guardian is required.

in Greece 16. i am 16 and i did skydive.

No. It could be extremely dangerous and lead to injury or even death.

A conventional round parachute works by slowing rate of descent. The resistance of the air against the bell of the parachute provides an opposing force to the gravity pulling down. Such parachutes have a small opening at the top to let the air out slowly and provide stability. Without the hole the parachute tends to swing from side to side like a pendulum allowing air to escape from the upper edge which makes for a very unhappy person beneath. There is limited control on such a parachute with lines that can open small vents or collapse portions of the parachute.

The wing parachute operates completely differently. Forward motion allows air into slots at the front, blowing up the chute into a wing shape. Normal aerodynamic principles apply where air flows over the curved top surface faster than under the wing reducing pressure above the wing and providing lift. Such parachutes can climb as well as descend. Control lines provide equivalence with normal airplane wing controls such as aerilons but they work by flexing the wing as a bird, rather than moving small sections as on a fixed wing. By adjusting the lift ratios on different edges of the wing, turning, stalling, diving etc are achieved.

The 'best' length for a parachute string depends on what the parachute is for and the rest of the design. If a parachute's strings are too short, the whole parachute could collapse. If the parachute's strings are too long, there may be some wobbling and bungeeing about, more twisting of the strings, etc. Parachutes for heavy things (like spacecraft) tend to have longer strings than parachutes for people, since they're less affected by this instability.

Tandem skydiving people is the term giving when two people skydive strapped together. When people skydive for their first time they must tandem skydive with a professional.

The Skydivers was created on 1963-11-13.

Fnet=Fgravity-Fair resistance

At terminal velocity Force Net = 0

during this time Fgravity = Fair resistance

if you weight is 85kg

Fgravity = Mass x G

= 85x 9.8

= 833N

your at terminal velocity when Air resistance is equal to 833 Newtons

For jumps intentionally make near a body of water, the skydiver is required to have a flotation device in his possession. Otherwise, you climb out of the harness and swim to safety. If that can't be accomplished then the skydiver may likely drown. Or in the case of bodies of water in Kansas, you would simply stand up.

Statistically water is more dangerous than skydiving. Ironically fishing causes more fatalities than skydiving.

Sorry, but no skydiving place is going to let you jump at 11 years old. Most places require you to be 18 years old, but some will let you jump at 16 with parental consent. The only way you would be able to is if your legal guardian (such as a parent) is a qualified skydiving instructor with hundreds of jumps under their belt, would take you themselves and would be completely responsible for what happens.

Keep skydiving as a goal, and look into it when you turn 16.

The first thing to consider when thinking of sky diving is the safety of the company providing the sky diving. Extensive research should be done on any sky diving company before actually sky diving.

A skydiver is not in freefall when they have opened their parachute. The move from free-fall to controlled decent under a wing.

To calculate this, you divide the change in velocity, by the time.

It is the sport of parachuting, also known as skydiving.

That depends on what type of parachuting you are talking about? If it is skydiving, in the UK, the age is 16 (with parental consent). Skydiving is where you jump out of a plane with a packed parachute on your back. After a freefall delay of around 1 minutes, the parachute is then opened (deployed) and it takes approximately 4 minutes to glide back to the ground.

You can have options of doing your first jump harnessed to an experienced instructor with a tandem jump or on your own with 2 Accelerated Freefall instructors. The 2nd route is the one to qualification and the 1st one is great for a one-off jump.
