To reduce the number of boxes that are damaged when they hit the ground, the company can design a parachute with more surface area. A larger surface area increases the drag force acting on the parachute, which slows down its descent, allowing the boxes to land more gently. This can help minimize the impact force when the boxes hit the ground, thereby reducing damage.
