An egg would typically reach terminal velocity in about 12 to 15 seconds when dropped from a significant height. Terminal velocity is the point at which the force of gravity on the egg is equal to the force of air resistance, causing the egg to no longer accelerate.
Terminal velocity is typically reached within 10-12 seconds when falling from a height, depending on factors such as air resistance and the height of the fall.
Terminal velocity is the constant speed an object reaches in free fall when the force of gravity is balanced by air resistance. The distance it takes to reach terminal velocity depends on the object's weight, shape, and air density. Generally, it can take a few thousand feet for a skydiver to reach terminal velocity.
Terminal velocity is reached when the forces of gravity and air resistance acting on an object are equal, causing the object to no longer accelerate. To measure when an object has reached terminal velocity, you can observe that the object falls at a constant speed without speeding up. This can be done by measuring the object's velocity as it falls and noting when it remains constant.
Which ever object has the lowest terminal velocity since it will take longer to accelerate to a higher velocity. Galileo showed that dissimilar object fall at similar rates and in the absence of air both objects would fall at an identical rate.
When objects fall gravity causes them to increase their speed. The speed would continue to increase if there was no atmosphere. But the atmosphere causes friction which prevents the object from continually increasing its speed. At some point in the fall the object reaches what is called its "terminal velocity". This is the maximum speed it reaches when the frictional force prevents it from going any faster. The terminal velocity of falling objects depends on their shape and mass so it is different for different objects. Also some objects take a long time to reach their terminal velocity so they have to be dropped from very high up in order to have time to reach terminal velocity before hitting the ground.

That varies, depending on the object. A massive object may take a long time to reach terminal velocity; a less massive object will reach terminal velocity faster. It basically depends on the object's mass, size, and shape.
Terminal velocity is dictated by the gravitational attraction between the bodies, intermediary fluid properties, and drag coefficient.
The only two ways to increase the speed of an object beyond its terminal velocity is to either reduce its drag, or increase the force causing it to fall. The speed of a falling object can be accelerated beyond terminal velocity, but absent a continuing force, and given enough time, it will eventually slow down to its terminal velocity.
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.
Terminal velocity is reached when the force of air resistance acting on a falling object is equal in magnitude to the force of gravity pulling the object down. This results in a net force of zero, causing the object to fall at a constant speed. Terminal velocity varies depending on the size, shape, and weight of the object.
Assuming the only difference is mass and that two objects have the same shape and size, it will take longer for the heavier object to reach terminal velocity than the lighter object. The terminal velocity of the heavier object is greater than that of the lighter object. Since the two objects accelerate at nearly the same rate at slower velocities, the time to reach terminal velocity will increase as weight or mass of the object increases. However I would not expect the increase to be a linear proportion since the drag is proportional to the square of the velocity.
