A stone of mass m is dropped from a tall building. There is significant air resistance. The acceleration of free fall is . When the stone is falling at a constant (terminal) velocity, which information is correct?
The detailed solution steps are locked. Click on the blue button to unlock them.
When the stone falls at a constant (terminal) velocity, the magnitude of the acceleration of the stone is zero and the magnitude of the force of gravity on the stone () is equal to the magnitude of the force of air resistance on it which will also be . (Option B)
