A Target Parachute

It is doubtful and very dangerous to think that a thousand Target bags would operate in the same manner as a carefully constructed parachute - although one thousand Target bags attached to your rear end would make for a great Halloween costume. Please don't try this one.

Answer

Ask Mythbusters.

Answer

The bags would not have enough area to open properly. The cords attaching them to you would increase total mass. Even real parachutes fail to open sometimes, what makes you think all the bags will open?

Answer

It would slow your plummet for a bit, but then it would probably fold over or get tangled, leaving you as a splat on the pavement

Better Answer

try it, it will work perfectly

Answer

It would work PERFECTLY if you're suicidal

Answer

It would work if you apply all the laws of quantum physics and you have written your will. And you have no problem with being flat.

How does the Leonardo invention of the parachute work?

Leonardo's parachute worked just like today's modern parachutes. But Leonardo did not know that the linen cloth he used would spread itself out in the air so he made a pyramid shaped shell to spread the cloth over. Air would get caught in the pyramid and create drag, tons of it, slowing whoever is attached to it, down.

Would a parachute work on a lander to earths moon?

No, a parachute would not work on a lander descending to the Moon because there is no atmosphere on the Moon to create the needed drag for the parachute to slow down the descent. Other methods such as retro-rockets or thrusters are used for landing on the Moon.

How does gravity and air resistance affect parachutes?

Gravity and air resistance are the main forces acting on a parachute. Parachutes are pulled towards the ground by gravity, and if there was no parachute, the guy attached to the chute would turn into tomato paste. So parachutes are designed to create the maximum amount of drag (which is air resistance) so the whatever attached lands undamaged. So basically, parachutes create air resistance to reduce the effects of gravity
