What things use air resistance to slow down?
A parachute
What is creep resistance?
creep resistance is a slow down in the speed of dislocations within a crystal structure
What causes a parachute jumper to slow down?
A parachute is slowed down by air resistance.
What is air resistance and how does it affect a falling object?
Air resistance is the force acting on an object moving in air that tends to slow it down or produce drag. If a stone is falling, air resistance will be acting on it to try to slow it. Should we consider a jet moving through air, air resistance will be providing drag to slow the jet down.
Which forces slow things down out of upthrust friction weight and air resistance?
Air resistance and friction. Weight can sometimes slow you down if your going up in like a plane or rocket. UpTHRUST THRUST=Push
How can you slow a plane down?
there are a couple of ways to slow a plane down. the first is to throttle down, this will help decrease speed. the second is pitch, if you increase the pitch, or raise the nose, you can decrease speed too. most aircraft have a pitch control wheel that raises or lowers the pitch (Nose) of the aircraft. By raising the pitch alittle and throttling down, you will slow the aircraft down really quick.

What is friction and what effects does it have on motion?
Friction is the sum of resistance to motion and as for resistance, it slow down the motion.
