What speed is terminal velocity for a falling body?

The terminal velocity of a falling body depends upon the drag forces encountered by the body throughout its fall. The drag forces will depend upon the shape of the body and is orientation with respect to the earth. Other factors affecting drag forces will be altitude, humidity and other variables that affect the density of the air. Here's the math. It isn't hard. Vt square root of (2mg/ρACd) where Vt terminal velocity,m mass of the falling object,g gravitational acceleration,Cd drag coefficient,ρ density of the fluid the object is falling through, andA projected area of the object. The projected area is also called the "cross-sectional area" where it's a silhouette or a "slice" across the "thickest" part of the falling object taken perpendicular to its orientation in free fall. A link to the Wikipedia article from which part of the post is copied ('cause it's easy to cut and paste) is supplied.


The distance that a free falling object falls is directly proportional to the square of the time it falls (before it hits the ground). If an object fell 91 ft in 2 seconds how far will it have fallen?

The answer is 91 ft, of course!

Is free a abstract noun?

No, the word 'free' is not a noun.The word 'free' is a verb and an adjective.The abstract noun form of the verb to free is the gerund, freeing.The abstract noun forms for the adjective free are freeness and freedom.There are a few dictionaries that categorize the word 'free' as a noun, a word for 'free people'. Most dictionaries do not.When the word 'free' is used as a noun as in "land of the free...", it can be considered poetic license; an abbreviated way to say "land of the free people...".

What is the acceleration of a free falling body with no air resistance?

depends on where it falls - on mars, earth or sun... On earth, it is about 9,8 m/sec^2. In general, it can be estimated by newton's formula F=G*m*M/R^2, where G is a constant, m is mass of the falling body, M is a mass of gravitating object (earth) R is distance between them. Consequently, acceleration is F/m = ...


What is the definition of free fall?

when the acceleration of the freely falling object is equal to the acceleration due to gravity then there occurs free fall.
