drag
Thermal Velocity
Thermal Velocity
Aerodynamic drag force, equal to: velocity2 * objects drag coefficient
A falling body initially falls at a rate of -9.8m/s2, the acceleration due to gravity. Because of the drag force of the air, which is an upward force that opposes the force of gravity, the body's acceleration will decrease as it continues falling. When the drag force equals the weight of the falling body, there will be no further acceleration, and the body will have reached terminal velocity.
drag
Terminal Velocity.

Thermal Velocity
Terminal Velocity.
It's also known as the force of air resistance.
Drag force, or the force of air friction for a falling body, increases with speed. A falling object will reach a speed at which the force of air friction will be equal to and opposite the force of gravity. At that point, the object will no longer accelerate. It's speed will remain constant, and we call that speed (and direction) its terminal velocity.
Aerodynamic drag force, equal to: velocity2 * objects drag coefficient
drag force (frictional force exerted by air) or air reststance
A falling body initially falls at a rate of -9.8m/s2, the acceleration due to gravity. Because of the drag force of the air, which is an upward force that opposes the force of gravity, the body's acceleration will decrease as it continues falling. When the drag force equals the weight of the falling body, there will be no further acceleration, and the body will have reached terminal velocity.
The greatest velocity a falling object reaches is called the terminal velocity.For an object falling at the terminal velocity, the weight force of the objectis balanced by the drag force and buoyant force on the object.W + FDRAG + FBUOYANT = FNET = 0.0
The greatest speed a falling object is known as its terminal velocity. At this speed, the drag force from the air is equal to the object's weight, and so there is no net force to accelerate the object further.
