Aim: To investigate how the size of a parachute affects the rate of the fall of a mass.
Say if I used a plastic bag as a parachute and attached, say, a children's teddy bear to it and dropped it from 5m high, would it go slower if I changed the plastic bag to a bigger one?
The bigger the parachute, the slower the object will fall to the ground?
Yes/No
Explain?
