no. Actually air exist on the surface of planets. It sticks to them because of gravitational force. there are no air particles in space. space is just nothing.

No. No air means no air resistance.

How fast do objects go in free fallouter space?

You can't fall in space, there is no gravity. An object will travel as fast as it is accelerated and continue at that speed forever as there is no air resistence to slow it down.


What does terminal velocity depend on?

Gravity and air resistence.


Does a piece of 1 inch yarn and a marble fall at the same speed?

In a vacuum sealed room, yes, they can. If not, then without properly balanced air resistence, no. The only reason objects fall at different speeds is because of air resistence/terminal velocity, things of that nature. When dealing with air, and etc... if you want them to fall at the same speed, they have to have the same air resistence (a combination of space taken up, and mass.) So yes, they could fall at the same speed, but the yarn would probably have to be coiled extremely tightly.


What effects does air resistance have on speed?

The air resistence have on air is for example when your are riding a bike, the air is pushin against you, so the air resistence is holding you back in speed. That's why when you see birds flying in the air, you see them flying in a triangle formation, they do that so the air resistence can fly past them easier.


What would be the most affected by air resistence when falling?

A feather.


Does air resistence slow the motion of moving objects?

yes it does


What do you use to see if all object fall at the same speed?

yes, all the objects fall at same speed if we neglect air resistence but they appear to be falling at different speeds due to air resistence.


Which forces slow down a car as it moves?

The primary force is air resistance, then there is friction and gravity.


Does gravity accelerate all masses at the same rate?

Yes. But not if there is a difference in air resistence.


Forces that act upon cars are?

Gravity, Air resistence, friction and the push from the floor/table


What forces affect a rocket's flight?

gravity and air resistence. Gravity pulls the rocket down while air resistence pulls the rocket up


What does air resistence depend on?

Air resistance depends on the velocity of the moving object.
