complete the sentence.
as nina falls, the magnitude of her velocity _______.
increases decreases does not change

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

When an object reaches terminal velocity, the upward air resistance force equals the downward gravitational force (weight). This means the net force on the object is 0, so its velocity stops changing and remains constant.

Answer:

does not change
