Can resistance speed up moving objects as well as slowing them down?
Resistance is force opposing motion so it will only slow objects down
What features of an object will affect air resistance?
the amount of air resistance on an object depends on the size, shape, and speed of the object. Air resistance is the force that opposes the motion of objects through air.
The speed when falling objects no longer accelerates due to air resistance is?
The speed when falling objects no longer accelerates due to air resistance is the maximum falling velocity.
how do objects fall when there is no air resistance?
In the absence of air resistance (friction) objects will fall at the same speed. Hope this still helps :)
Why do falling objects reach a terminal velocity?
When the force of friction due to air resistance at that speed becomes equal to the object's weight. At that point, the sum of the vertical forces on the object is zero, so it no longer accelerates.
How the force of air resistant depends on an objects speed?
In general the resistance increases by the 4th power of the speed.

What happens to a falling object when the of air resistance the force of gravity?
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.
Do objects fall equally?
They fall at the same speed, if there is no outside force acting on it (ie. air resistance, wind etc.)

Does gravity force all objects downward at the same speed?
Gravity causes all objects to accelerate at the same rate in a vacuum. In air there is air resistance which can slow some objects down eg a parachute. So, yes, in a vacuum all objects reach the same speed in the same time period.

When the force of friction due to air resistance at that speed becomes equal to the object's weight. At that point, the sum of the vertical forces on the object is zero, so it no longer accelerates.
Does the speed change if air resistance is a factor?
A faster-moving object will have increased air resistance because more molecules of air will be encountered over the same time frame. The same holds true if an object that encounters denser air: there is more air resistance, therefore more lift as well as more drag.
What objects fall at the same speed?
Neglecting air resistance ... all of them.
