How much air resistance acts on a 100 n bag of nails at its terminal speed?
Wiki User
∙ 6y ago
The acceleration is 0. That also means that the net force is 0N since the gravity Force is 100N down and the bag of nails is 100N, the air resistance must be 100N up to balance it out and create the net force of 0N

How much air resistance acts on 100-N bag nails that falls at its terminal speed?
100-N
How much air resistance acts on a 60 N bag of nails that falls at its terminal speed?
60 newtons.Since its speed isn't changing, the forces on it must add up to zero. So the force due toair resistance at that time is equal to the weight of the bag.
How much air resistance acts on a falling 100-N box of nails when it reaches terminal velocity?
100-N
What type of force acts on a raindrop to reduce its speed?
Air resistance. The viscosity (resistance to flow) of the atmosphere slow down falling raindrops.
How is gravity related to terminal velocity?
Based on the 9th grade book of Physical Science... Gravity is a force that acts between two masses, and Terminal velocity is the constant velocity of a falling object when the force of air resistance equals the force of gravity. So, gravity causes objects to accelerate downward, whereas air resistance acts in the direction opposite to the motion and reduces acceleration... which ties together terminal velocity.

How does a skydiver reach terminal speed?
When he first jumps, his weight is the only force acting on his body. As he accelerates, the air resistance force, which acts in the opposition direction to the weight, increases in magnitude. When these two forces equal, they cancel each other out, which means that the diver does not accelerate anymore. This speed is the terminal speed. It's all a matter of forces.
Which force acts against speed?
Frictional force acts against speed of any object.
What kind of force opposes the motion of parachute?
Air resistance acts up. Weight acts down. When they are equal in size, the parachutist falls at terminal velocity, without accelerating. Air resistance, like all frictional forces is electromagnetic.

Air resistance. The viscosity (resistance to flow) of the atmosphere slow down falling raindrops.

What is the speed of terminal volocity?
You could multiply force times mass, with gravity being the force, thus giving acceleration then take away the force in which drag acts upon to gibe the terminal volocity
A ball falling through the air has?
acceleration due to gravity acting on it, which causes it to increase in speed as it falls. The force of air resistance also acts on the ball, gradually slowing it down. Eventually, the ball reaches terminal velocity, where the force of gravity is equal to the force of air resistance and the ball falls at a constant speed.
