About this document

Parachute Drag Coefficient Experiment by Engr Mohammad Farhan is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document describes an experiment to measure the drag coefficient of different parachute designs and objects. Students will construct small, medium, and large flat parachutes, as well as a canopy parachute, and attach them to ping pong balls of varying weights. The parachutes and balls will be dropped from a height of 2 meters and the fall time measured. The measurements will be used to calculate the drag coefficient and Reynolds number for each design. Students will then graph drag coefficient versus R
