Parachuting involves the principles of acceleration and forces acting on the parachutist. Initially, as a parachutist jumps from an aircraft, they accelerate downward due to gravity. As they fall, air resistance (drag) increases until it balances the gravitational force, resulting in terminal velocity, where acceleration becomes zero. Once the parachute is deployed, the increased surface area dramatically increases air resistance, causing a rapid deceleration until a new, slower terminal velocity is reached.

Do certain people go parachuting?
the way i see it is that if parachuting is an extreme sport that they would announce it on the radio or tv so your answer is no it is not i've went before though its fun

What height do you have to be to go parachuting?
Static line parachuting takes place from around 4000ft. As you fall from the aircraft, the parachute opens automatically. To go skydiving (i.e. freefalling through the sky with a packed parachute on your back), you typically jump from between 10,000ft to 15,000ft. You can get up to 1 minute in freefall, or significantly longer with a wingsuit.
Can you get addicted to Percocet by parachuting it?
Yes.
What does acceleration have to do with go karts?
Whenever a velocity changes, by definition you have an acceleration.
Are parachuting and skydiving the same thing?
Yes.

What are the ideal weather conditions for parachuting?
I am not completely sure what is the ideal weather conditions for parachuting. After lots of research I have found videos and guides that will help you understand more.
When did the US military adopt parachuting?
WWII they were paratroopers
Why does the acceleration of a merry go round change even though the speed stays the same?
The acceleration of a merry-go-round changes because acceleration measures a change in velocity, not just speed. In the case of the merry-go-round, even though the speed may stay constant, the direction of the velocity is constantly changing as the object moves in a circular path, resulting in acceleration due to the change in direction.
