1. Parachute Investigation

2. Velocity Definition: The constant maximum velocity reached by a body falling through the atmosphere under the attraction of gravity Stokes' law F is the frictional force r is the particle radius µ is the fluid viscosity v is the particles speed

3. Stokes law mg = 6 πηr v T 6 πηr v T mg When the parachute is falling it will eventually reach terminal velocity. When it reaches terminal velocity it means that there is the same amount of weight on the parachute as there is on his body.
