Question

  1. when is a falling object experiencing terminal velocity? clear all the drag force equals the gravitational force the drag force is greater than the gravitational force the object is accelerating at 9.8m/s^2 the drag force is less than the gravitational force

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Terminal velocity occurs when the net - force on a falling object is zero. The two main forces acting on a falling object are the gravitational force pulling it down and the drag force (air resistance) pushing it up. When the drag force equals the gravitational force, there is no net force, and the object stops accelerating and reaches a constant speed, which is the terminal velocity.

Answer:

the drag force equals the gravitational force
