it traps air inside to slow it down
A skydiver - he uses a parachute that slows him down as a result of air resistance acting on the surface of the parachute
dandilion seed parachute
An hot air balloon i think.
When an object falls through air, it experiences air resistance. This air resistance is a force that opposes the object's motion. The amount of air resistance an object experiences depends on the object's shape, size, and speed. A man using a parachute falls slowly because the parachute creates a large amount of air resistance. A stone falls very fast because it has a small amount of air resistance.
well after opening the parachute it will be filled with air so technically the individual will go down slowly due to air resistance .
Yes it can cause sound waves can travel through solids,liquids,but slowly in gases and air
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.
A parachute works by increasing air resistance. When the parachute opens, it creates a large surface area that catches and slows down the air as the object falls. This increased air resistance reduces the speed at which the object falls, allowing it to descend more slowly and safely.

Shaking the parachute more slowly will result in lower air resistance and less tension being created. This may cause the parachute to descend more slowly or not fully inflate, affecting the overall experience of the parachute activity by reducing the amount of lift generated.
It does not 'keep you in the air' a parachute slows down your rate of descent by traping air under the canopy.
Air molecules are much, much farther away from each other in air than they are in water.
