Technical report: the study of parachute problem / Nur Syairah Wahab, Nursyirah Zaim Zaini and Nik Haseriani Nik Hassan

In the skydiving problem, parachute is used to slow down the motion of skydiver for the safe landing. The shape of parachute's canopy play importance role to determine the speed of down motion of the skydivers. The more the air resistance occur at the parachute's canopy the slower the spee...
