What else can I help you with?
Explain how a parachute works using the terms air resistance surface area and gravity?
A parachute works as the gravity allows the parachute to go up into the air, then the surface area is covered with air resistance.
Whick works better a square triangle or circle parachute?
The best shape for a parachute is a circle. This is because the circle will have a larger area that will cause more drag to slow the parachute.
Can a person parachute without a parachute?
yes it is possible to parachute without a "parachute" there is a suit which u wear called a squirrel suite i believe which allows the air to be caught acting as a "brake" there for slowing you down but i am not sure if it works completley
How does the size or shape of a parachute affect the way it works?
If the hole is bigger the parachute speed will decrease
What is the aim of making a parachute?
The aim is to use the right material and the right shapes , i once tried making a parachute and plastic works better than cloth or newspaper or anything else.
Would a parachute help a skydiver in space?
No. A parachute would not help a skydiver in space. A parachute works by taking advantage of air resistance. There is no air in space, so there can be no resistance. Perhaps that's the main reason why the Space Shuttle never deployed its parachutes while it was still in space.
What is the slowest parachute made of?
The slowest parachute is made of lightweight materials like nylon or silk, which creates more drag and slows down the descent. These materials allow for more control and precision during the parachute landing.
How does the parachute helps an object to fall slowly?
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.
How a parashute work?
A parachute works by creating drag as it opens and catches air. When a person or object is falling, the parachute slows down the descent by increasing air resistance, allowing for a safer and slower landing. The canopy shape and size help control the rate of descent and steer the parachute in a specific direction.
What force makes a parachute work?
A parachute works due to air resistance, which creates drag forces that slow down the falling object by pushing against the air. As the parachute opens and fills with air, the drag force increases, counteracting the force of gravity and allowing for a controlled descent.
How do you jump from planes?
Make sure you have a parachute that works. Then let yourself fall out. Make sure you don't hit the propeller.
What mechanism is used in parachute?
A parachute works by catching air in its canopy, creating drag and slowing down the descent of an object or person. The canopy is designed to create enough drag to decrease the terminal velocity of the falling object, allowing for a safe landing. The parachute harnesses the force of air resistance to counteract the force of gravity.
