What force slows down a parachutist?
up thrust or air resistance.
What is the force that slows down airplanes?
Air friction, which is measured as drag.
What is the force that slows down an airplane?
Drag is the force that slows down a plane. Drag may be caused by air friction. It may also caused by non-retractable landing gears.
What is the name of the force which slows down a man falling with a parachute?
air resistance , maybe!
What part air resistance plays in gravity?
i think air resistance slows down the object that gravity is pulling towards it
Air slows the motion of an object by a force called what?
Air resistance.
What force opposes gravity and slows down an object falling through the air?
drag force (frictional force exerted by air) or air reststance
What effect does a force have on a moving object when the force is not along the objects path?
Air resistance slows down the object. The kinetic energy accelerates the object. Friction creates a reaction between the surface and the object.
What is a force that slows things down in the air?
Whenever any object moves through air (eg an aeroplane) it observes four forces 1 Drag force 2. lift force 3.weight of object 4.thrust created by the propellers or engine of the object. The drag force is directed opposite to the direction of moment of the object and slows the object down.
How air affects the motion of an object?
Causes drag( slows an object), can cause lift or down force. It can also cause an object trajectory (wind drift of a rifle bullet)
The force which slows down a parachutist?
Air resistance or upthrust :)
What force slows down parachutist?
'Drag' which is air resistance.
What does air resistance cause falling object to do?
it slows down their speed
What is the force that slows a parachutist down as they fall through the air?
Air Resistance or friction with the air.
What force slows down a parachutist?
up thrust or air resistance.
What is the force that slows down airplanes?
Air friction, which is measured as drag.
What force slows things down the most?
Friction and Air Resistance
