Why is mass a factor for terminal velocity (…. Therefore, …=…)
W=mg, mg=ma, g=a, F=ma. Therefore, more mass = more terminal velocity
2
New cards
Why is surface area a factor for terminal velocity (More…=more…=less…)
More surface area = more particles hitting per second = less terminal velocity
3
New cards
Why is density of the air/fluid a factor for terminal velocity(…=…=…)
Denser air/fluid = more particles hitting per second = less terminal velocity
4
New cards
