Answer:
Due to the resistance of air, a drag force acts on a falling body (parachute) to slow down its motion. Without air resistance, or drag, objects would continue to increase speed until they hit the ground. The larger the object, the greater its air resistance. Parachutes use a large canopy to increase air resistance. Also, Once the parachute is opened, the air resistance overwhelms the downward force of gravity. The net force and the acceleration on the falling skydiver is upward. An upward net force on a downward falling object would cause that object to slow down. The skydiver thus slows down.

Answer:
4.61 seconds
Explanation:
Given data
Initial velocity= 12m/s
acceleration= -2.6m/s^2
From the given data
we can find the time t
we know that
Acceleration= velocity/time
time= velocity/acceleration
time= 12/2.6
time= 4.61 seconds
