How does acceleration affect falling objects?
As objects fall, they are accelerated by the force of gravity, which causes them to continually fall faster, until they either reach the ground, or until they reach what is known as terminal velocity, which is the speed at which air resistance is equal to the force of gravity, so that the falling object does not accelerate any more.
How does gravity affect objects falling at the same time?
Two objects falling at the same time will fall with the same speed (assuming they both have similar shape and density)
What is the force called that makes all objects fall at different speed?
That's called the "force of imagination".In the absence of air, all objects fall with the same acceleration. At equal times after the drop, all objectsare falling at the same speed.
What is the word that causes all objects to fall at different speeds?
In the absence of air, all objects fall with the same acceleration. That means that at the same time after the drop, all objects are moving at the same speed.
Air resistance causes the speed of a falling object to?
Nearly all falling object are affected by the resistance of air. However some objects have a mass greater than the air can affect. There is also the case where air resistance equals that of gravity and the object will not fall any faster.

Why don't all falling objects fall at the same speed?
The only reason falling objects don't fall at the same speed on Earth is the countering force of wind resistance. Without air, all objects would fall at the same rate, regardless of mass (ex. Galileo's ball experiments, as well as the hammer and feather experiment on the Moon).
Who developed law of falling bodies that states that all objects fall at the same speed regardless of their mass?
Galileo
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.
What is the force called that makes all objects fall at different speed?
That's called the "force of imagination".In the absence of air, all objects fall with the same acceleration. At equal times after the drop, all objectsare falling at the same speed.
Objects that fall slower have more?
surface area which causes more resistance (assuming object is falling in non- vacuum)
What is the word that causes all objects to fall at different speeds?
In the absence of air, all objects fall with the same acceleration. That means that at the same time after the drop, all objects are moving at the same speed.
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.
Air resistance causes the speed of a falling object to?
Nearly all falling object are affected by the resistance of air. However some objects have a mass greater than the air can affect. There is also the case where air resistance equals that of gravity and the object will not fall any faster.
What experiment of Galileo's involved cannonballs?
Galileo's experiment to show that mass had little effect on the speed of falling objects involved two cannonballs of different sizes being dropped from a certain height. This showed that, in a vacuum at least, falling objects fall at the same speed no matter their mass.
What causes object to fall?
gravity causes objects to fall
