Air resistance is a friction force, the flow of air over a surface will cause friction and produce drag.

It is the action of friction that slows something moving through air. The larger the object, the more the air resistance acting on the object.

Air resistance depends mainly on an object's shape, not so much on the material.


Why is air resistance bad?

Air resistance is neither good nor bad, it is simply a factor. Air resistance costs us in terms of performance, a car with high wind resistance gets lower mileage than one with less; but without air resistance planes would not fly at all.

If two bodies of different mass fall from same height will they reach at the same time?

Yes - but only if you can ignore air resistance, that is, if the objects fall for a sufficiently short time, and have a sufficiently high mass, and sufficiently small surface area, so that air resistance becomes insignificant.Yes - but only if you can ignore air resistance, that is, if the objects fall for a sufficiently short time, and have a sufficiently high mass, and sufficiently small surface area, so that air resistance becomes insignificant.Yes - but only if you can ignore air resistance, that is, if the objects fall for a sufficiently short time, and have a sufficiently high mass, and sufficiently small surface area, so that air resistance becomes insignificant.Yes - but only if you can ignore air resistance, that is, if the objects fall for a sufficiently short time, and have a sufficiently high mass, and sufficiently small surface area, so that air resistance becomes insignificant.
