Challanges
Attach different weights to the parachute and see how much weight it can carry before it falls too quickly.
Build different shapes and sizes of the parachute to see which one falls the last.
Drop the parachute from different heights and see the difference.
Questions to be asked
Does the shape of the parachute (circle, square) affect the way it falls?
What happens if you add more weight to the object hanging from your parachute?
What happens if you attach two parachutes to one weight? Will it fall slower or faster? Why?
What happens if you make holes in the parachute? Can you still make it work?
