Its called terminal velocity
It's called terminal velocity! :)
Terminal velocity is an object's maximum speed while falling through the air, and it happens when the force created by air resistance is equal to the force of gravity.
The maximum velocity of a falling person is about 200 miles per hour; at that point the air resistance does not allow further acceleration.
terminal velocity is the final maximum velocity of a falling object.
The speed when falling objects no longer accelerates due to air resistance is the maximum falling velocity.

Perhaps you mean terminal velocity. This is the maximum velocity reached by an object falling to the ground when the acceleration due to gravity is matched by the drag resistance of the air through which it is falling.

Without air, the speed of a falling object keeps increasing, and never reaches a maximum. The only thing that causes it to reach a maximum and stop increasing is air resistance. The effects of air resistance depend on the size, shape, and composition of the object, and the calculation of the "terminal velocity" in advance is very complex.
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"
The greatest velocity that a falling object can achieve is termed, terminal velocity. The equation for terminal velocity is equal to the square root of (2mg / (air density * projected area * drag coefficient))
It increases at the rate of acceleration due to gravity, 9.8m/s2, until air resistance and the weight of the object become equal but opposite in direction. At that point there is no further acceleration and the object has reached its maximum velocity, called terminal velocity.
Objects when falling that cannot ignore air resistance are things like feathers, leaves, seeds, or small pieces of paper just to name a few. Objects when falling that can ignore air resistance are things such as objects that are heavy and compact like rocks or metal balls.
