Does the air resistance has an affect on the projectile or not?

Not "affect"; the word is "effect" in this case. Yes, air resistance has an effect on projectiles.


Does mass effect air resistance?

Not directly. Air resistance depends on an object's shape and type of surface.


What is the effect on the projectile motion when the diameter of the object is changed?

-- In the absence of air resistance, the object's diameter has no effect at all on the projectile motion. -- In the presence of air resistance, one has to know everything about the object AND the air in order to have a prayer of calculating the effect.


What is the effect of increasing speed on air resistance?

it gets faster.


What are the factors that effect air resistance?

size , shape , and speed of the object


3 things that effect the strength of resistance?

light air water


What effect terminal velocity and air resistance have on a sky diver when he opens his parachute?

Air resistance increases and terminal velocity decreases when the parachute has opened.


Compare the effects of gravity and air resistance on a falling skydiver before and after she opens her parachute.?

-- The force of gravity is unchanged before and after.-- The force of air resistance on the skydiver is greater before, and less after,because she is falling slower after the parachute opens.-- The effect on her of air resistance is greater after the parachute is open. Theincreased air resistance itself acts on the parachute, and its effect is transferredto the skydiver through her harness.

What is the effect of mass of object to speed of falling object to the earth?

If air resistance can be neglected, there is no effect. If there is air resistance, the general tendency is for more massive objects to fall faster. In places like the moon, where there is no air, a feather and a rock fall together.


How does wweight affect how things fly through the air?

If you ignore air resistance, weight has no effect at all.


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.
