What is air resistance and what are the two factors that air resistance depends on?

Air resistance is the force that opposes the motion of an object through the air. It depends on the speed of the object and its surface area exposed to the air.

When an object falls through the air encounters air resistance its overall speed will be than if it had not encountered air resistance?

The resistance do obstruct the object. The object always travel slower with air resistance. Air resistance is higher with velocity and the object falling through air would have a limited velocity that it can't go through.

What are the different types of resistance available on exercise bikes?

The different types of resistance available on exercise bikes are magnetic resistance, air resistance, and friction resistance. Magnetic resistance uses magnets to create resistance, air resistance uses air to create resistance, and friction resistance uses a brake pad to create resistance.


How are air resistance and friction alike?

Air resistance is a type of fluid friction (along with water resistance) and is therefore is a type of friction.


Is air a source of resistance?

Yes, air can provide resistance to objects moving through it. This resistance, known as air resistance or drag, is caused by air molecules colliding with the moving object and can slow down its motion.
