1- Parachute Power

2-Which parachute shape is holding longer up?

4-My hypotheses is that the square will stay longer up.

5-We are going to cut plastic bags in shape and tie a rope to an eraser and release it in the sky.

  2. We released the parachutes at 2.42 m above the floor.Then we let it go.
    The circle shaped parachute stayed in the air for 0.60 second ( in average). Then we tried with a semicircle.It stayed 0.60 second(in average).
    The rectangle shaped parachute stayed in average 0.46 second in the air.
    The triangle shaped parachute stayed 0.63 second (in average)in the air.
    The triangle shaped parachute stayed 0.03 more second in the air.
