Why do skydivers use parachutes scientifically speaking?
Skydivers use parachutes to slow down their freefall to a safe landing speed. The parachute creates drag, which counteracts the force of gravity pulling the skydiver towards the ground. This ultimately allows the skydiver to land safely without injury.
What effect terminal velocity and air resistance have on a sky diver when he opens his parachute?
When a skydiver opens their parachute, air resistance increases which slows down the skydiver. Terminal velocity is the maximum speed a falling object can reach when the force of gravity is balanced by the force of air resistance. Opening the parachute decreases the skydiver's speed, allowing them to land safely.

When a skydiver opens their parachute they move upwards?
When a skydiver opens the parachute, he or she does not move upward, but rather, continues to move downward, but at a slower speed. Sometimes there is an illusion that the skydiver is moving upward, because if there are several people skydiving together, and one of them opens a parachute while the others don't, you will see the skydiver with the open parachute moving upward with relation to the other skydivers. But they are all still moving downward, they are just doing so at different speeds.

What shape what is the displacement versus time for the skydiver be?
The shape of the displacement versus time graph for a skydiver would be a curve that starts at zero displacement when the skydiver jumps out of the plane, increases as the skydiver falls accelerating due to gravity, and eventually levels off as the skydiver reaches terminal velocity. The curve will then be a straight line at a constant displacement representing the terminal velocity until the skydiver opens the parachute, at which point the displacement will decrease as the skydiver slows down and lands.
How do you land safely from high altitudes?
With a parachute
What direction is the net force on a falling skydiver before she reaches terminal vilocity?
The net force on a falling skydiver is directed downwards, which is the force of gravity acting on the skydiver. This force causes the skydiver to accelerate as she falls until she reaches terminal velocity.
When a skydiver has reach the terminal speed what is the air resistance equal to what is the sky diver acceleration?
When a skydiver reaches terminal speed, the air resistance is equal to the force of gravity acting on the skydiver. At this point, the acceleration of the skydiver is zero, as the forces are balanced. This means that the skydiver is falling at a constant speed due to the opposing forces being equal.
