Are roller coasters safer then skydiving?
Roller coasters are much safer than skydiving. Roller coasters breakdown very rarely and deaths hardly ever happens. When you go skydiving so much can go wrong. You may hit a tree, not deploy your parachute fast enough, or have a crash landing.
How could I make skydiving cheaper and safer?
Firstly, make sure nobody is skydiving at the same time to avoid collisions. Second, always deploy your parachute early enough, depending on your experience level. Third, be careful when executing maneuvers in midair after deploying the parachute.
How can you join skydiving?
First you'll want to find a dropzone near you. The United States Parachute Association website (www.uspa.org) has a tab on their front page directing you to a page where you can put in your zip code or city and find dropzones near you. Then you can give that dropzone a call and find out about their rates and what they offer, or just drive on out and see for yourself. For your first jump you can make a tandem jump where you are strapped to an instructor who is wearing a parachute. This allows you to get the thrill or skydiving without having to worry about landing or anything else since your instructor will take care of everything. For those who want a bit more control or those who may want to continue skydiving and get their licenses most dropzones offer an Accelerated Free Fall (AFF) course. The course starts out with 5-6 hours of classes teaching you everything you need to know to make that first jump safely. For your first AFF jump you will wear your own parachute and two instructors will jump with you and remain by your side holding on to you and keeping you stable throughout the freefall. After you pull you will fly and land your parachute by yourself (with an instructor over radio walking you through it.) If you like skydiving you can keep going through AFF and once you have enough jumps and have demonstrated the necessary skills you can get your skydiving license.
How does a parachute enable a person to jump without getting hurt?
A parachute slows down the descent of a person by creating drag and increasing air resistance. When a person jumps with a parachute, the parachute opens up and generates enough drag to slow down the fall, allowing the person to land safely without getting hurt.
Why do people jump off buildings without a parachute?
Because sometimes the ground is soft enough to absorb their impact and leave them un hurt.
Why a parachute is attached with dragster?
The dragster needs a parachute in order to slow down at the end of its run. Brakes alone are not enough. Its the same thing as with the Space Shuttle when landing.
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.
Does Chuck Norris rule?
Chuck Norris once went skydiving, but promised never to do it again. One Grand Canyon is enough.
A common error when hunting birds with shotgun is?
Leading the bird too much (shooting too far "in front" of the bird)Not leading the bird enough (shooting "at" the bird, without accounting for the necessary "lead", therefore hitting "behind" the bird).Shooting at a bird too far awayUsing the wrong ammunition (for instance, target loads for waterfowl)Not being aware or fast enough to "draw a bead" on the birdLack of patienceMany, many more....
Where can one practice shotgun shooting?
One can practice shotgun shooting in more than one place. If you have enough land you can practice there. You can also go to a shooting range and try there.
What are the action and reaction forces on the fabric of a parachute when it is deployed?
When a parachute is deployed, the action force is the air resistance pushing against the parachute fabric. This air resistance is created by the change in the air's velocity as it passes through the canopy of the open parachute. The reaction force to this action force is the drag force created by the parachute pulling against the jumper. This drag force is created by the increase in the parachute's surface area, which slows the jumper down as they fall. The drag force is also responsible for the parachute's ability to slow the jumper's descent enough to safely reach the ground.
How do you open a parachute in battlefield Vietnam?
just hold the A button (Xbox 360) or X button (PS3) once you exited the plane until u hear a parachute sound. It won't let you deploy it when you are really close to the ground because there's not enough time so make sure you jump out high enough.
