What else can I help you with?
When the upward and downward forces on a falling object are equal the object reaches?
When the upward and downward forces on a falling object are equal, the object reaches terminal velocity. At terminal velocity, the object stops accelerating and falls at a constant speed.
When gravitational forces and air resistance equalize on an object that is falling toward earth and the object stops accelerating its velocity is called?
In that case, the object is said to have achieved terminal speed.
What are the directons in which the forces are acting when a parachutist when he is falling?
When a parachutist is falling, the forces acting on them are gravity pulling them downward and air resistance pushing against their fall. Gravity is the dominant force causing the parachutist to accelerate towards the ground while air resistance counteracts this force, eventually leading to a terminal velocity where the forces are balanced.
Does A free falling object experiences a balance of forces?
Yes, if it reaches terminal velocity, which is a constant velocity. When terminal velocity is reached, the downward gravitational force is equal to the upward force of air resistance, and the object no longer accelerates.
When the air resistince on a falling object equals the pull of gravity on the object what happens?
When the air resistance on a falling object equals the pull of gravity, the object reaches its terminal velocity. At terminal velocity, the object no longer accelerates and falls at a constant speed due to the balance of forces acting upon it.

When the upward and downward forces on a falling object are equal, the object reaches terminal velocity. At terminal velocity, the object stops accelerating and falls at a constant speed.
When gravitational forces and air resistance equalize on an object that is falling toward earth and the object stops accelerating its velocity is called?
In that case, the object is said to have achieved terminal speed.
When the upward and downward forces on a falling object or changes its direction is called an?
Terminal Velocity.
What if a falling object reaches this when forces of gravity and air resistance are balanced?
terminal velocity
When an object is falling is it balanced or unbalanced forces.?
Not balanced UNTIL it reaches terminal velocity.
What are the directons in which the forces are acting when a parachutist when he is falling?
When a parachutist is falling, the forces acting on them are gravity pulling them downward and air resistance pushing against their fall. Gravity is the dominant force causing the parachutist to accelerate towards the ground while air resistance counteracts this force, eventually leading to a terminal velocity where the forces are balanced.
What is the name of the speed when air resistant and gravity stop a falling object from speeding up or slowing down?
Terminal Velocity is the speed that a falling object achieves when the drag forces that occur from air resistance are equal to the gravitational forces acting on the object.
Does A free falling object experiences a balance of forces?
Yes, if it reaches terminal velocity, which is a constant velocity. When terminal velocity is reached, the downward gravitational force is equal to the upward force of air resistance, and the object no longer accelerates.
When the air resistince on a falling object equals the pull of gravity on the object what happens?
When the air resistance on a falling object equals the pull of gravity, the object reaches its terminal velocity. At terminal velocity, the object no longer accelerates and falls at a constant speed due to the balance of forces acting upon it.
Are Terminal velocities balanced or unbalanced?
Terminal velocities are balanced forces. At terminal velocity, the upward force of air resistance acting on an object falling through the air is equal in magnitude to the downward force of gravity, resulting in an equilibrium where the object falls at a constant speed.
What is it called when the forces of air resistance and gravity are equal in a falling object?
Terminal velocity see link
What is the greatest velocity a fallen object reaches?
If air resistance is significant, after falling for a while the air resistance will be as strong as the force of gravity; the two forces will be in equilibrium, and the object won't accelerate any more. This velocity is called "terminal velocity". The amount of this terminal velocity, and the time it takes to approach the terminal velocity, depends on the specific object that is falling.
