Researchers from NASA performed an experiment that will carry a
land rover of 900 kg on MARS at a velocity of 90 m/s using a
parachute with a diameter of 100 m. How much velocity would be
needed if the experiment will be performed on Earth carrying a 10
kg mass? How big is the diameter of the parachute to be used for
the model? Let the mass density of air on MARS be 0.2 kg/m3. The
mass density of air on Earth is 1.225 kg/m3.
