the parachute has a big space area so that when he falls through the air the air molecules get collected by the parachute therefore reducing speed of falling down
PS. doesnt mean he doesnt fall at all
by increasing surface area
It increases.
by increasing surface area
-- The force of gravity is unchanged before and after.-- The force of air resistance on the skydiver is greater before, and less after,because she is falling slower after the parachute opens.-- The effect on her of air resistance is greater after the parachute is open. Theincreased air resistance itself acts on the parachute, and its effect is transferredto the skydiver through her harness.
Once a skydiver jumps off the plane, they will begin picking up speed. However, as the speed of the skydiver increases, the amount of air resistance acting upon them will also increase. The skydiver will continue to accelerate while his or her weight is greater than the air resistance. When the force of the air resistance becomes equal to the weight of the skydiver, the skydiver will stop accelerating and will continue falling at a constant speed, this is known as the terminal velocity. While travelling at terminal velocity, the skydiver will be able to adjust his or her body position in a way that will increase or decrease the air resistance and allow the diver to alter their speed. Releasing his or her parachute will drastically increase the amount of air resistance and therefore slow their descent significantly.
Yes - falling out of an airplane. Use a parachute.
The parachute increase the surface area and so therefore increase air resistance, slowing the person down, and reducing terminal velocity.

To start with there is gravitational attraction. As soon as the skydiver starts falling, (s)he will experience the drag force due to air resistance. The gravitational force is essentially constant but the drag increases as the diver's velocity increases until it equals gravity. The diver is the falling at terminal velocity and will continue to do so until the parachute is operated.

The parachute increase the surface area and so therefore increase air resistance, slowing the person down, and reducing terminal velocity.
*by reducing the weight or density of the falling object. *By introducing resistance to the falling object in the form of flat light weighted object. *giving parachute.
Friction (from air resistance) stops them from falling faster and faster continually - instead they reach a maximum velocity and stay at that speed until they pull their parachute. Friction prevents them from plummeting to their death.
air resistance , maybe!
