What else can I help you with?
What is the duration of The Two Parachutists?
The duration of The Two Parachutists is 1.47 hours.
What do you call a group of parachutists?
Skydivers
Whats the reason for the holes in their chutes?
assuming parachutists don't have holes in their heads.
What does drop zone mean?
A drop zone is usually the place parachutists aim for after jumping out of a plane.
Can Parachutists reduce their air resistance by increasing the size of the cross-section they present to the air?
no, the reverse, you will increase it
How do parachutists reduce the friction?
Parachutists reduce friction by using a smooth parachute fabric and deploying it properly to maximize air resistance, which slows down their descent. Additionally, they can also control their body position to minimize surface area exposed to the air, thereby decreasing friction.
What does a parachutists expect he or she chute to do?
A parachutist hopes the chute leaves the pack, and spreads out correctly, when the rip-cord is pulled.
What might parachutists do to speed up their rate of fall?
They would have to reduce friction by becoming perpendicular to the ground and reduce their surface area.
How do the military make square parachutes?
The T10 and T10 Modified chutes are not square. What you're referring to is the airfoils used by freefall and HALO parachutists. Those are not made by the military - they're sourced from civilian companies who manufacture parachutes for civil parachutists. What the specific specs are for the military contract airfoils.. that information isn't made available to the public.
How do the parachutists organize themselves in different ways while parachuting?
Parachutists organize themselves in various formations during freefall to optimize stability, control, and visibility. They may form groups such as "star" or "box" formations, where individuals position themselves at specific angles to create a cohesive shape. Additionally, parachutists can adopt different orientations, such as belly-to-earth or head-down, depending on their objectives, such as performing aerial maneuvers or preparing for a coordinated landing. Throughout the jump, communication and visual cues are crucial for maintaining the desired formation and ensuring safety.
Who invented the flight suit?
Do you mean flight suits/compression suits for fighter pilots, or wing suits, the kind that let parachutists "fly"
How do free fall parachutists control their speed?
Free fall parachutists control their speed by adjusting their body position. By angling their body either face down or face up, they can increase or decrease their surface area, which affects their rate of descent. They may also use their parachute's steering toggles to control their direction and speed.
