The resistance of an object to changes in its motion?
The resistance of an object to changes in its motion is known as inertia. Changes in an objects motion include changes in its speed and direction.
The speed when falling objects no longer accelerates due to air resistance is?
The speed when falling objects no longer accelerates due to air resistance is the maximum falling velocity.
how do objects fall when there is no air resistance?
In the absence of air resistance (friction) objects will fall at the same speed. Hope this still helps :)
Does gravity force all objects downward at the same speed?
Gravity causes all objects to accelerate at the same rate in a vacuum. In air there is air resistance which can slow some objects down eg a parachute. So, yes, in a vacuum all objects reach the same speed in the same time period.
Can resistance speed up moving objects as well as slowing them down?
Resistance is force opposing motion so it will only slow objects down
What objects fall at the same speed?
Neglecting air resistance ... all of them.
What changes a objects speed and motion and direction?
A force.
How the force of air resistant depends on an objects speed?
In general the resistance increases by the 4th power of the speed.
What do we call an objects resistance in speed or direction?
The resistance to a change in velocity is called "inertia". It is related to the mass of an object.
Does water resistance speed up moving objects?
No, it would slow objects down. Resistance implies that the water is acting against the object's motion, slowing it down.
How does air resistance affect the acceleration of falling objects?
As a falling object accelerates through air, its speed increases and air resistance increases. While gravity pulls the object down, we find that air resistance is trying to limit the object's speed. Air resistance reduces the acceleration of a falling object. It would accelerate faster if it was falling in a vacuum.
Air resistance causes the speed of a falling object to?
Nearly all falling object are affected by the resistance of air. However some objects have a mass greater than the air can affect. There is also the case where air resistance equals that of gravity and the object will not fall any faster.
