A box is sitting on a table. The upward force exerted on the box that stops it from falling through the table is known as the force.?
A box is sitting on a table. The upward force exerted on the box that stops it from falling through the table is known as the force.
What force is the upward force exerted on any object in a fluid?
The upward force exerted on an object in a fluid is buoyancy.
When you drag force on an object falling through the air equals the force of gravity the object has reached what?
Thermal Velocity
When you drag force on an object falling through the air equals the force of gravity the object has reached?
Thermal Velocity
What is and upward force of air against a moving object?
The upward force is drag.
The upward force of an ojbect falling through the air is?
Once the object reaches terminal velocity, the air resistance is equal to the gravitational pull.

A box is sitting on a table. The upward force exerted on the box that stops it from falling through the table is known as the force.
What is the direction of air resistance on a falling object ?
Just like any other source of friction, air resistance effectively results in a force opposite to the object's motion. If the object is falling, then the force is upward.
When an object is falling at terminal velocity what is the net force acting on the object?
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.
What force is the upward force exerted on any object in a fluid?
The upward force exerted on an object in a fluid is buoyancy.
What 2 principal factors affect the force of air resistance on a falling object?
The shape of the object and the density of the gas that the object is falling through.
When you drag force on an object falling through the air equals the force of gravity the object has reached what?
Thermal Velocity
When you drag force on an object falling through the air equals the force of gravity the object has reached?
Thermal Velocity
What is and upward force of air against a moving object?
The upward force is drag.
When the buoyant force on a submerged object is more than the weight of the object?
The net force on the object is upward, so the object accelerates upward in the fluid.
What force oppses the motion of an object falling through the air?
Nothing is opposing an object falling to earth. Gravity is causing an object to fall back to earth which is opposing the object from leaving earht. If anything the force that opposes gravity is the force at which an object is projected.
What is an upward force?
It is a force which acts in the upward direction.
