It slows the acceleration - possibly down to zero @ "terminal velocity".
It reduces the acceleration of the falling object due to friction.
Air resistance creates friction and slows a falling object.
-- gravity -- air resistance
The shape of the object and the density of the gas that the object is falling through.
Air resistance causes friction and slows an object.
Air resistance and gravity are the main components.
Air resistance acts in the direction opposite to the motion of a falling object, slowing it down. The faster an object moves through the air, the greater the air resistance it experiences. This force ultimately affects the speed and trajectory of the falling object.
The mass of an object will not affect the time it takes for it to reach the ground from a fixed height. Backspace
Slows an object down or speeds one up.
As a falling object accelerates through air, its speed increases and air resistance increases. While gravity pulls the object down, we find that air resistance is trying to limit the object's speed. Air resistance reduces the acceleration of a falling object. It would accelerate faster if it was falling in a vacuum.
The object opposes the air and while falling of the object the initial velocity will become zero , and the final velocity will have some value's this is how air will resist the velocity of falling object ...........
Yes, a feather is considered a free falling object in a vacuum or an environment with minimal air resistance. However, in normal atmospheric conditions, air resistance can significantly affect the feather's rate of descent.
