The velocity of a dropped and falling object goes on increasing due to acceleration due to gravity. It is given as v = gt
So as t increases then velocity v also increases.
Value of g is 9.8 m/s2

∙ 15y agoWhen objects fall gravity causes them to increase their speed. The speed would continue to increase if there was no atmosphere. But the atmosphere causes friction which prevents the object from continually increasing its speed. At some point in the fall the object reaches what is called its "terminal velocity". This is the maximum speed it reaches when the frictional force prevents it from going any faster. The terminal velocity of falling objects depends on their shape and mass so it is different for different objects. Also some objects take a long time to reach their terminal velocity so they have to be dropped from very high up in order to have time to reach terminal velocity before hitting the ground.

In free fall when the air resistance is equal to the weight of the falling object we say that the object has reached velocity.?
That is called terminal velocity.That is called terminal velocity.That is called terminal velocity.That is called terminal velocity.
Is the greatest velocity a falling object reaches is it called momentum?
The greatest velocity a falling object reaches is called the terminal velocity.For an object falling at the terminal velocity, the weight force of the objectis balanced by the drag force and buoyant force on the object.W + FDRAG + FBUOYANT = FNET = 0.0
Is there a maximum velocity to a falling object?
At some point the air resitance on an falling object will become equal to the force of gravity and the falliing object will stop acceperating. This is called "terminal Velocity"
What is the fastest speed reached by an object falling through the air called?
This is called "terminal velocity". When the drag (friction) caused by the air is equal to the force of gravitational acceleration, the object stops increasing in speed. This is directly related to the area of the object, which determines the air resistance.
What is the hypothesis of how does air resistance affect the velocity of falling objects?
The object opposes the air and while falling of the object the initial velocity will become zero , and the final velocity will have some value's this is how air will resist the velocity of falling object ...........
The point at which an object is falling at the fastest it can go is called what?
Terminal velocity.
What is the greates velocity a falling object can reach called?
The fastest velocity a falling object can reach is called its terminal velocity. This happens when the force of air resistance is equal to the downwards force of weight (gravity), so the object is in equilibrium, and thus reaches a constant velocity.
What is the most velocity of a falling object can get called?
terminal velocity

What would you call it when air resistance the force of gravity and a falling object stops accelerating?
When a falling object stops accelerating but is falling at a constant velocity, it is called terminal velocity.
What is The greatest velocity a falling object?
the greatest velocity a falling object reaches is terminal velocity

When the upward and downward forces on a falling object or changes its direction is called an?
Terminal Velocity.
