Question
what two forces are in balance when an object is at terminal velocity? select one. a. net force and air resistance b. air resistance and gravity c. friction and air resistance d. gravity and weight
When an object reaches terminal velocity, the upward - acting air resistance force balances the downward - acting force of gravity. Net force is zero at terminal velocity. Friction is not relevant here in this context, and weight is the force due to gravity, not a separate force in this balance.
