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
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.
What happens to the air resistance as the parachute opens?
Air resistance will increase when the parachute opens, and the decent of the skydiver will slow down.
What term describes the air resistance that slow down aircraft?
Drag

Why does air resistance slow things down?
Because the force generated is always opposite the direction of motion.
What is aerobraking?
It is using air resistance to slow an object down.
Which car has the least air resistance?
slow everything down
How can we slow down the skydiver?
Air resistance and ultimately the ground.
Can a baseball slow down because of the resistance of air?
Yes
What is the force that slow a parachutist down a they fall through the air?
Air Resistance or friction with the air.
What happens to the air resistance as the parachute opens?
Air resistance will increase when the parachute opens, and the decent of the skydiver will slow down.
What causes a pendulum to slow down and stop swinging?
Air resistance.
What do parachutes do that cause skydiver to slow down?
simple air resistance
