The net force is zero.
Terminal velocity means that the velocity no longer changes; therefore (by Newton's Second Law), since the acceleration is zero, the force must also be zero.
Is the greatest velocity a falling object reaches is called its momentum
No it would have a lower terminal velocity as there would be more air resistance acting upon it
When an object is not accelerating or decelerating, it has a net force of zero.
acceleration due to gravity acting on it, which causes it to increase in speed as it falls. The force of air resistance also acts on the ball, gradually slowing it down. Eventually, the ball reaches terminal velocity, where the force of gravity is equal to the force of air resistance and the ball falls at a constant speed.
Zero.
Zero.
Air resistance equals the pull of gravity, so essentially zero.
An object falling at terminal velocity is moving at constant speed (that's what terminal velocity means) and we will assume it is not changing direction (i.e. it is falling straight down; in reality it is more likely to be bobbing and weaving on the wind.) Constant speed and direction is another way of saying constant velocity. when an object is acted upon by a net force, it's velocity changes. So, since we know that the velocity is not changing, there is no force.
Terminal Velocity.
= Terminal velocity =
Zero. "Terminal velocity" means that the object is no longer accelerating; the downward force of gravity and the upward force of resistance are in balance.
Terminal velocity means that the velocity no longer changes; therefore (by Newton's Second Law), since the acceleration is zero, the force must also be zero.
When an object is at terminal velocity, the two forces due to gravity and drag are equal, so the object ceases accelerating. Its motion is constant and vertically downward.
Is the greatest velocity a falling object reaches is called its momentum
"Terminal velocity" means that it no longer accelerates; and that, in turn, means that the net force must be zero.
No it would have a lower terminal velocity as there would be more air resistance acting upon it
