Force that resists the motion of a lever?

Air resistance is always a resisting force. No matter where a person or object is and no matter how fast or slow that object is moving relative to something, air resistance will always be there, provided that you are on Earth. In space, there is no resisting force.


What is frictional resistance due to motion through air?

This frictional resistance known as "air resistance" is the drag force. The drag force changes with the drag coefficient of the object in motion.


What is the force that opposes the motion of objects through air?

Air Resistance is the kinetic friction of the object's surface moving through the air. In aeronautical terms this is known as drag.


What is a force that can oppose motion?

Friction or Resistance
