Have a little read: ... Investigating the effect of mass on a parachute Outline Plan In this experiment, I will explore the factors, which affect the mass on a parachute. I will use different masses to see whether a heavy mass will make the parachute fall down to the floor quicker than a smaller mass. Prediction I believe that the heavier the parachutist is, the quicker the parachute will fall down to the floor and will reach terminal velocity. Therefore, the air resistance will be larger than the lighter one. I think this because when the mass is larger the parachute accelerates to a higher speed due to the terminal velocity being higher. Theory Velocity = Distance Time Acceleration = Increase in Velocity Time Hypothesis I think that my prediction is correct because the heavier parachutist will have a large surface area to the lighter parachutist. This will mean that both will have difference speeds of movement as air resistance affects
