Forces, acceleration and Newton's laws

• At the start of falling through a fluid, an object accelerates downwards due to the force of gravity as its speed increases, with frictional forces such as air resistance increasing at terminal velocity.
• Terminal velocity is the maximum speed of an object, reached when the forces moving the object are balanced by its frictional forces.
• Objects falling through a fluid close to the surface of the Earth eventually reach terminal velocity.
• The weight of an object does not change as it falls, as long as it stays whole.
• A skydiver falling spread-eagled through the air reaches a maximum speed of about 53 m/s.
• There are three stages as an object falls through a fluid: at the start, the object accelerates downwards due to the force of gravity as its speed increases, frictional forces such as air resistance increasing at terminal velocity.
• Terminal velocity is the maximum speed of an object, reached when the forces moving the object are balanced by its frictional forces.
