What is a "parachute"?
A parachute is a large, fabric device used to slow down a person or object as they fall through the air. It is designed to open and create drag, which reduces the speed of descent, allowing for a safe landing. Parachutes are often used in activities like skydiving, where they help jumpers land gently, and in emergencies, such as in aircraft ejections. The parachute typically opens automatically or manually when a specific height is reached, and its design includes cords and a canopy to control the direction and speed of the fall.
