A falling elephant encounters a greater force of air resistance than a falling feather does. The force of air resistance can't be greater than the weight of the falling object. When the force of air resistance is equal to the weight of the falling object, the object stops accelerating, its falling speed becomes constant, and the force of air resistance doesn't get any bigger. So the force of air resistance against a falling feather can't be greater than the weight of the feather. But the force of air resistance against a falling elephant can be, and undoubtedly is, greater than the weight of a feather.
gravity wind resistance weight
The weight exceeds the force of air resistance, but as the speed increases the air resistance increases, so the net force (weight - air resistance) falls. When the difference becomes zero the acceleration ceases and you have terminal velocity.
*by reducing the weight or density of the falling object. *By introducing resistance to the falling object in the form of flat light weighted object. *giving parachute.
It can affect people's weight and mass. Also if youdo skydiving, then gravity will pull you down much faster, but air resistance is much weaker. =============================================== Another contributor stopped in to clean up after the first one: -- Gravity is responsible for your weight, but has nothing to do with your mass. -- You don't have to be a skydiver for gravity to pull you down. You only have to slip on a banana peel, fall out of bed, or walk down the stairs. -- Air resistance isn't all that weak. Gravity wants to keep increasing your falling speed, but air resistance can completely take over so that your falling speed doesn't change at all.

In free fall, when the air resistance is equal to the weight of the falling object, we say that the object has reached ________ velocity.
Constant
gravity wind resistance weight
All Objects fall at the same rate in a vaacume, no matter the weight.
The weight exceeds the force of air resistance, but as the speed increases the air resistance increases, so the net force (weight - air resistance) falls. When the difference becomes zero the acceleration ceases and you have terminal velocity.
*by reducing the weight or density of the falling object. *By introducing resistance to the falling object in the form of flat light weighted object. *giving parachute.
The net force would be zero, which means the falling object would no longer be accelerating, and would be falling at terminal velocity, which is a constant velocity. Weight is a downward (negative) force and air resistance is an upward (positive) force. Fnet = weight + air resistance = -12N + 12N = 0N

Falling objects increase their speed as they fall, because their weight (the force of gravity) pulls them to Earth. ... Objects fall faster until they reach their terminal speed, which is reached when the upward (air resistance) and downward (weight)forcesare equal.
The resultant force on a falling toy is downward. It is the weight of the toy minus any air resistance, which for short distances is negligible.
