Terminal. It stays at that one velocity til the object hits the ground.
Constant
This is known as terminal velocity.
The weight exceeds the force of air resistance, but as the speed increases the air resistance increases, so the net force (weight - air resistance) falls. When the difference becomes zero the acceleration ceases and you have terminal velocity.
In free fall, when the air resistance is equal to the weight of the falling object, we say that the object has reached ________ velocity.
-- When the forces on an objerct are 'balanced' ... meaning they add up to zero ...the object moves with a constant speed in a straight line.-- When the object's weight is greater than the force of air resistance, it keepsaccelerating downward.-- When the force of air resistance is equal to the object's weight, the forces on itare balanced, they add up to zero, and the object's speed becomes constant.-- If you started by throwing the object down at a high speed, so that the force ofair resistance was greater than its weight, its speed would decrease to the pointwhere the force of air resistance was equal to its weight. At that point, the forceson it would be balanced, they would add up to zerro, and its speed would becomeconstant.
If air resistance equals the force of gravity, the object will cease to accelerate, so its velocity will remain constant.
That is called terminal velocity.That is called terminal velocity.That is called terminal velocity.That is called terminal velocity.
The faster something moves, the more air resistance is created. So as gravity pulls something faster, the air resistance increases as it's speed does, until the forces of air resistance and gravity are equal, making the object move at a steady pace.
The ball returns to the ground with increasing velocity due to acceleration due to gravity. At a point (terminal velocity) the ball maintains a constant velocity (due to air resistance) This occurs when the weight of the ball is equal to the viscous drag of the air (air resistance) and upthrust (weight of air displaced).
Yes, until he reaches terminal velocity.
Fnet=Fgravity-Fair resistance At terminal velocity Force Net = 0 during this time Fgravity = Fair resistance if you weight is 85kg Fgravity = Mass x G = 85x 9.8 = 833N your at terminal velocity when Air resistance is equal to 833 Newtons
The point at which the acceleration due to gravity is equal to the friction of the air dragging on the object (generally). When the two are equal, they cancel out and no more acceleration occurs, causing the object to have attained the fastest speed possible.
