Yes, if you are talking about falling through the atmosphere. While the pull of gravity makes the falling object go faster, friction between the object and the air increases with increasing speed.
Eventually this frictional force equals the weight of the object which continues to fall at a steady rate called the terminal velocity.
When a falling object stops accelerating but is falling at a constant velocity, it is called terminal velocity.

In that case, it is said to have achieved terminal velocity.
In that case, it is said to have achieved terminal velocity.
Terminal velocity is the term that refers to the speed at which a falling object stops accelerating and falls at a constant rate due to the balancing of air resistance and gravitational force.
The increased speed limit goes into effect AT the speed limit sign, not at any point before that. While you're not likely to get cited for accelerating at a reasonable point before you actually get to the sign, you're still bound by the prior speed limit until you actually reach that sign.
at terminal velocity
An object falling towards the Earth will stop accelerating once it reaches its terminal velocity, which is the maximum speed it can achieve due to air resistance. This happens when the force of air resistance is equal to the force of gravity acting on the object.
The speed limit of falling objects is called terminal velocity. This is the constant speed that a freely falling object eventually reaches when the resistance of the medium it is falling through (like air) equals the force of gravity acting on it.
Terminal velocity is the term that refers to the speed at which a falling object stops accelerating and falls at a constant rate due to a balance between air resistance and gravitational force.
