which parachute has a lower decent ?a red parachute that falls 10 feet in 4 seconds or a blue parachute that falls 12 feet in 6 seconds
We need to find the descent of feet per sec.
To find this, use the same thing as miles per hour
Distance/ time=speed
10/4=2.5 feet per second
12/6=2 feet per second
Therefore the blue parachute falls slower
