What causes a bullet To lose speed and fall to the ground?

Gravity and air resistance will both play a part. Air resistance is likely to reduce speed and gravity will cause the bullet to be pulled towards the ground.


What effect does air resistance have on gravity?

Air resistance has no effect on gravity. The force of friction due to air resistance against a falling object balances part or all of the gravitational force, depending on the object's shape and speed through the air ... just as your hand or a rubber band attached to the object would ... but the full force of gravity is still there.


Which direction does the parachutist go if gravity is greater than air resistance?

The parachutist will go down, of course. If gravity is greater than air resistance, then the parachutist would accelerate (his speed would increase). This would increase air resistance, up to the point where gravity and air resistance are in balance.


What Forces act on an arrow in air?

How can you increase air resistance?

you can increase air Resistance by adding more gravity and more air Resistance which is the push that comes from down to up and will cancel out with the gravity eventually!! sorry i thank i messed up hope i helped!


If a skydiver jumps out of a plane which force is greater gravity or air resistance?

Gravity


How does shape and air resistance can effect the laws of gravity?

It doesn't. The force of gravity depends on the masses involved, and their distance. However, air resistance can introduce other forces, that counteract the force of gravity.
