What isnit called when an object is moving at its maximum velocity?
When an object is moving at its maximum velocity, it is simply referred to as moving at "maximum speed." This means that it is traveling as fast as it can and cannot go any faster.
How does the weight of an object relate to how fast it falls with a parachute?
The weight of an object affects how quickly it can reach its terminal velocity when falling with a parachute. Heavier objects typically reach terminal velocity faster than lighter objects due to the greater force of gravity acting on them. However, once both objects reach terminal velocity, they will fall at the same constant speed regardless of their weight.
What is terminal velocity and how to control it and why it occurs?
Terminal velocity is when air resistance balances out with gravity. For humans it's usually around 2000 ft of falling, gravity accelerates the person towards the ground at about 9.8m/s, as said person speeds up, air resistance increases and it becomes harder to accelerate. Terminal velocity is the point at which one may no longer accelerate. To control it: more air resistance = slower descent (terminal velocity comes sooner and is not as fast (i.e.parachutes), less air resistance = faster descent, it may take longer to reach terminal velocity as it is a much higher speed.
How does terminal velocity apply to an egg drop?
Terminal velocity is the constant speed that a falling object reaches when the upward force of air resistance matches the downward force of gravity. In an egg drop experiment, understanding terminal velocity is important because it helps determine how fast the egg will fall once it reaches its maximum speed and how much impact it will experience upon landing. By manipulating factors such as the weight of the egg or the surface area of the parachute, the goal is often to ensure that the egg reaches terminal velocity at a safe speed to prevent it from breaking upon impact.
Why is acceleration a rate?
Acceleration means how fast velocity changes. "How fast" means change of velocity per time unit - and this is also called a "rate".Acceleration means how fast velocity changes.

What veritables determine how fast an object will be moving when it reaches terminal velocity?
The surface area is the variable to determine how fast an object will be moving when it reaches terminal velocity.
How does an object achieve terminal velocity?
99% of the object cause terminal velocity is determined from an object when it is going as fast as it will go
The greatest velocity a falling object reaches?
The greatest velocity that a falling object can achieve is termed, terminal velocity. The equation for terminal velocity is equal to the square root of (2mg / (air density * projected area * drag coefficient))
If you throw a tennis ball of the Empire State Building how fast will it go?
It will go as fast as it's terminal velocity
How fast can a man fall to earth from airplane?
The fastest rate a human can fall is called terminal velocity. Terminal velocity is when the gravity force upon an object is equal to that of the wind resistance. The normal terminal velocity of a human is around 125 miles per hour.
How fast do rubber balls go if they fall off a tower?
It depends on the height of the tower and the terminal velocity of the specific rubber ball. Many objects with a specific gravity near 1 have a terminal velocity of about 120 miles per hour.

How fast does a person fall out of an air plain?
About 55 meters per second is "terminal velocity". http://hypertextbook.com/facts/JianHuang.shtml

Do 2 object that incur terminal velocity can hit the ground at the same time?
No because air resistance determines how fast an object reaches terminal velocity. NASA did an experiment on the moon with a Hammer and a Feather. On the moon they hit the ground at the same time. On earth they don't. I have added 2 video links so you can see for yourself. One was done on the moon, the other was done in a vacuum chamber on earth, so that people couldn't argue it was because the gravity on the moon is less. see related links below.
