It depends on the object that it goes through, because if a the surface of an object is big, the more drag it produces. If the object has a small surface that meets the air, then it won't produce drag that much.

Does drag slow a moving object?
Yes.
What is air resistance and how does it affect a falling object?
Air resistance is the force acting on an object moving in air that tends to slow it down or produce drag. If a stone is falling, air resistance will be acting on it to try to slow it. Should we consider a jet moving through air, air resistance will be providing drag to slow the jet down.
Would a parachutist be considered a free falling object and why?
The falling of a parachutist without his parachute deployed will be quite fast. We can slow his decsent by putting a drag on the free fall with a parachute. The fall is no longer free of drag (friction).
How does air resistance affect a falling helicopter?
the same that it would affect any falling object. The higher the air resistance the thicker the air density. This will result in a higher drag coefficient and will slow the fall of the object.
Move an object on the screen?

How many miles an hour does an object freefall?
It depends on the shape of the object and therefore its drag coefficient. For example, you can slow down your freefall by spreading your limbs out.
What is a arachute?
Do yo mean Parachute a device used to slow the motion of an object through an atmosphere by creating drag,
When was Sunflower Slow Drag created?
Sunflower Slow Drag was created in 1901.
When was Slow Drag - album - created?
Slow Drag - album - was created on 1967-05-12.
What is dragged?
'Dragging' is the present participle of 'drag'

Does the weight of an object make a difference on the distance it will go?
Well... Yes and no. If there were no atmosphere, it would not matter; both a heavy and a light object would go the same distance. However; we have atmosphere, which causes drag, so a heavier object would have more momentum to push through the drag, whereas a lighter object would slow down faster - resulting in less distance.All of this, of course, presupposes that all other things are equal, such as the size of the object, influencing its drag coefficient, as well as it initial velocity.
What is frictional drag?
Friction drag is the drag acting on the surface of an object from a fluid flowing over it. When a fluid flows over an object it exerts a shear force on the object because of the fluid's viscosity which pulls the object in the direction of the flow.
