It isn't, necessarily. But the force of gravity is constant, whereas the force
of air resistance depends on how fast you're moving through the air. So when
you begin to fall, gravity is stronger, and it makes you fall faster and faster.
But as your speed increases, so does the force of air resistance, and eventually,
the force of air resistance builds up to be equal to the force of gravity. At that
point, you keeep falling, but your speed doesn't grow any more.
When air resistance is greater than the force of gravity acting on an object, it will slow down the object's descent. This is because the air resistance force counteracts the force of gravity, reducing the acceleration of the object as it falls.
Bigger parachutes have more air resistance and drag force than smaller parachutes. This is because the larger surface area of the bigger parachute creates more friction with the air, resulting in increased resistance and drag.
Initially, gravity is greater than air resistance, causing the skydiver to accelerate downwards. As the skydiver picks up speed, air resistance increases until it eventually balances out with gravity, leading to a constant speed called terminal velocity.
Gravity is typically stronger than air resistance. Gravity is a fundamental force that pulls objects towards each other, whereas air resistance is a type of friction that opposes the motion of an object moving through the air. This means that in most cases, gravity will have a greater impact on the motion of an object compared to air resistance.
A sled accelerates downhill when the force of gravity pulling it downhill is greater than the force of friction and air resistance acting against it. This difference creates a net force that causes the sled to accelerate. The normal force from the surface helps support the sled against gravity but does not impact its acceleration directly.

"Free fall" means that gravity is the only force acting on a body.
The bigger an object is, the more gravity it has! Earth is much bigger than the moon, therefore it has stronger gravity.
The vehicle accelerates, assuming the engine is in a vehicle.
Bigger parachutes have more air resistance and drag force than smaller parachutes. This is because the larger surface area of the bigger parachute creates more friction with the air, resulting in increased resistance and drag.
which what? The bigger the force (weight) the more gravitaional force on an object. less gravity on moon than on earth

Assuming that you're referring to an object that is accelerating towards a massive body by means of gravitational attraction... When the force of frictional air resistance equals the opposing force of gravity, the net force on the object equals zero, and acceleration will cease. It is called terminal velocity, and the object will remain at this velocity until some new event happens.
Initially, gravity is greater than air resistance, causing the skydiver to accelerate downwards. As the skydiver picks up speed, air resistance increases until it eventually balances out with gravity, leading to a constant speed called terminal velocity.
Yes, definitely, so make sure you are not standing under it.

Yes, as long as the surface area of the airplane was large enough to make the force of air resistance balance with the force of gravity or if the airplane is moving at a fast enough speed to make the air resistance balance with gravity.
