A feather is in freefall when the force of gravity is greater than the force of air resistance is equal to the force of air resistance is less than the force of air resistance is the only force acting?

"Free fall" means that gravity is the only force acting on a body.


What force changes when a sky diver's parachute opens?

The force that changes is air resistance and the force that stay the same is gravity.


What two forces act on all falling objects in the earths atmosphere?

Gravity and Resistance Under free fall, the only force acting upon an object is the force of gravity. But realistically, there is also the force of friction from the air (Air Resistance) that opposes the force of gravity.


Do you get when you subtract the force of air resistance from the force of gravity?

Terminal Velocity


What is the counter force of an airplane?

Gravity and air resistance.


Why is gravity a bigger force than air resistance?

It isn't, necessarily. But the force of gravity is constant, whereas the force of air resistance depends on how fast you're moving through the air. So when you begin to fall, gravity is stronger, and it makes you fall faster and faster. But as your speed increases, so does the force of air resistance, and eventually, the force of air resistance builds up to be equal to the force of gravity. At that point, you keeep falling, but your speed doesn't grow any more.


What forces act on a falling leaf?

Gravity and air resistance.


How does shape and air resistance can effect the laws of gravity?

It doesn't. The force of gravity depends on the masses involved, and their distance. However, air resistance can introduce other forces, that counteract the force of gravity.


If a skydiver jumps out of a plane which force is greater gravity or air resistance?

Gravity


What are the main forces acting on falling rock?

Gravity and air resistance.


What is air resetense?

Air Resistance is a force that pushes up against gravity.


What effect does air resistance have on gravity?

Air resistance has no effect on gravity. The force of friction due to air resistance against a falling object balances part or all of the gravitational force, depending on the object's shape and speed through the air ... just as your hand or a rubber band attached to the object would ... but the full force of gravity is still there.
