Well, here are a few that I can think of . . .
-- the speed at which the object is plowing through the air
-- the density of the air through which the object is plowing
-- the local turbulence in the air that was there before the object came along
-- the physical size of the object
-- the shape of the object
-- the object's surface texture

What three factors determine the amount of resistance of a material?
In solids, the resistance varies directly as the length of the object and inversely as the cross-sectional ares of the object and coefficient of resistance of the material which is an inherent property that each solid (metal or other) has.
What three factors determine the amount of energy required for an activity?
the three factors that determine the energy cycle are solar power, electricity, and heat.
Explain why a man using a parachute falls through air slowly while a stone falls through air very fast?
When an object falls through air, it experiences air resistance. This air resistance is a force that opposes the object's motion. The amount of air resistance an object experiences depends on the object's shape, size, and speed. A man using a parachute falls slowly because the parachute creates a large amount of air resistance. A stone falls very fast because it has a small amount of air resistance.
What are the four factors that determine a persons creditworthiness?
Factors that determin a person's creditworthiness arePayment history, amount of outstanding debt, amount of time that the debt has been open, and the amount of new credit.
State the two factors that determine the amount of work done on an object?
Energy and pressure
What 3 factors determine the amount of friction in a car?
Wind Resistance, Road Surface, Tire Structure
If you have a circuit consisting of a battery and a wire What two factors determine the amount of current in the circuit?
The voltage of the battery, and the resistance of the circuit (including the resistance of the wire and the internal resistance of the battery).
What three factors determine the amount of resistance of a material?

What factors determine the carrying capacity?
Factors that determine carrying capacity are the amount of resources available and population. Other factors are land area and amount of water.
Determinants of demand include factors that determine the amount that will be purchased at each price?
Determinants of demand include factors that determine the amount that will be purchased at each price
What four factors determine the amount of resistance in a circuit?
Material that makes up the wire, length of wire, diameter of wire, and temperature of wire
How the resistance of the material is determine?
Resistance is measured in ohms and the amount of resistance that allows one ampere of current to flow when one volt is applied is one ohm.
What three factors determine the amount of energy required for an activity?
the three factors that determine the energy cycle are solar power, electricity, and heat.
What two factors determine the amount or lift achieved by an airplane?
thrust and wing size determine the amount of lift achieved by an air plane.

What factors affect the amount of air resistance acting on an object?
shape, size, and speed
What factors that determine the soil pH?
The factors which affect soil pH levels are the amount of rainfall, the amount of plants and the number of soil organisms.
