The amount of air drag on an 0. 8n flying squirrel dropping vertically at terminal velocity is 0.8 N.
What speed is terminal velocity?
- The speed that an object reaches when it freely falls through a gas or liquid is known as the terminal velocity.
- A parachutist who waits to open the chute will typically reach a terminal velocity of around 150 miles per hour (240 km/h).
- A mist of minute oil droplets settles with an incredibly low terminal velocity, whereas raindrops fall at a considerably lower terminal velocity.
- An object compelled to go faster than its terminal velocity will slow down to this constant velocity upon release; an object dropped from rest will increase its speed until it achieves terminal velocity.
- Therefore, an object reaches terminal velocity when its speed is no longer growing or decreasing and its acceleration (or deceleration) is zero.
