To increase drag and prolong the time your mini-parachute stays in the air, you can enlarge the surface area of the tissue paper by making the parachute wider or adding flaps. Ensuring that the parachute is lightweight yet structurally sound will also help it catch more air. Additionally, using a heavier string or attachment point can slow the descent, allowing the parachute to float longer. Lastly, creating a shape that allows for better air resistance, like a dome or a wide canopy, can further enhance drag.

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.
Why shouldn't a parachute be opened at very low or very high altitudeds?
Opening a parachute at very low altitudes can prevent enough time for the parachute to deploy fully, leading to a hard landing and potential injury. Conversely, opening a parachute at very high altitudes can expose the jumper to extreme cold, low air pressure, and oxygen deprivation, which can impair decision-making and increase the risk of hypoxia. Additionally, the increased speed at high altitudes can cause structural failure of the parachute if deployed too late. Proper altitude management is crucial for a safe jump.
You are making a egg parachute at school. What would make a great canopy for it?
Styrofoam.
When parachute strings are longer why is there more air resistance?
When parachute strings are longer, there is more surface area of the strings exposed to the air. This increases the overall air resistance experienced by the parachute system as a whole, making it slower to fall.
What size of parachute makes a free fall slower?
Depends what you mean by "better". A bigger parachute provides more wind resistant so if you were to jump out of a plane, you would want to go big. If your talking speed (like a running parachute) you would want a small parachute to accommodate how much harder you want to make your run
If we use cotton ropes in making parachute?
If rayon is prepared from wood pulp why it is called as synthetic fibre
When was the first parachute invented?
The earliest evidence for the parachute dates back to the Renaissance period. The oldest parachute design appears in an anonymous manuscript from 1470s Renaissance Italy .
Does x increase or decrease making the y increase or decrease?
no. :)
Using running parachute to improve speed and strength?
Attaching a parachute to you while you run will catch wind/air, slowing you down. This resistance will make you have to run faster and harder than normal, making your running regimen more intense and effective.
What were the advances in communication that helped increase the westward expansion?
The answer is Samuel F.B. Morse who invented the Telegraph. because of this he greatly expanded communication making the expansion westward possible and easier.
Is it possible to be misled when making chemical observation?
Be careful, it is possible.
Why a parachute would not be useful in landing on the moon?
A parachute would not be useful for landing on the moon because there is no atmosphere to create drag for the parachute to slow down the descent. Without air resistance, a parachute would not be able to slow down a spacecraft effectively, making it unsuitable for landing on the moon.
