Air resistance pushes in the direction opposite to the motion of an object. It acts to slow down the object as it moves through the air, creating a force that opposes the object's velocity.
As you travel faster, the air resistance or drag force acting against you increases because the faster you move, the more air molecules you have to push out of the way. This resistance creates a feeling of wind or force pushing against you, making it more noticeable at higher speeds.
Air exerts a push or pull through the force of air pressure. When air molecules collide with a surface, they create a force that can push or pull objects. This is how phenomena like wind and air resistance occur.
Air resistance acts as a frictional force that opposes the motion of an object falling through the air. The presence of air resistance will slow down the fall of an object, causing it to reach its terminal velocity where the downward force of gravity is balanced by the upward force of air resistance. The larger the surface area and less aerodynamic the shape of the object, the greater the impact of air resistance on its falling speed.
Air- resistance is basically a type of friction between an object and the air
Air resistance is caused by the friction between the moving car and the air molecules it comes into contact with. As the car moves through the air, these air molecules push against the surface of the car, creating resistance that opposes the car's motion.
Yes resistance would be a push force.
Air resistance is also called drag on a vehicle. When the vehicle moves forward it must push the air molecules out of the way, this causes resistance or friction. The faster the vehicle is going, the faster it is pushing the air molecules out of the way causing greater resistance.
Yes resistance would be a push force.
Air resistance is basically friction between the object on the air- it has to push the air out of the way, and slows down.
Wind resistance (actually, Air Resistance) works against a car- it has to push air out of the way. Cars that are "streamlined" are designed so they slip through the air more easily than those that are not.

There are two factors that influence air resistance with temperature. Air density decreases with temperature so that the force needed to push the air out of the way is decreased, thereby decreasing resistance. Conversely, air viscosity increases with temperature (unlike oil for example where viscosity decreases with temperature) so that the drag increases. Under normal conditions, the density change of air has the greatest effect and air resistance decreases at higher temperatures.
Increasing the air resistance can be very desirable if you want the object to fall, and hit the ground, slower. The most obvious case is when parachuting. A falling object has to push the air out of the way. It is much easier for the air to push past a small object than a large one. Parachutes slow you down because they present a large surface area, making it harder for the air to get out of the way.
