   What is terminal velocity?

   • Terminal velocity is the maximum speed attainable by an object as it falls through a fluid ( air is the most common example). It is reached when the sum of the drag force ( Fd) and the buoyancy is equal to the downward force of gravity ( FG) acting on the object.

   Why is terminal velocity an example of balanced force?

   • It occurs when the sum of the buoyant force and the drag force equals the force due to gravity. The terminal velocity is the highest velocity during the object’s fall. Since its speed is constant, the net force acting on the object is zero, and it will have no acceleration. Hence, terminal velocity is an example of balanced force.

   How do you calculate drag force at a terminal velocity?

   • At the terminal velocity, Fnet = mg − FD = ma = 0. Thus, mg = FD. Using the equation for drag force, we have mg = 1 2CρAv2 T. Solving for the velocity, we obtain vT = √2mg ρCA. Assume the density of air is ρ = 1.21 kg/m 3.

    Sep 12, 2022 · This means a skydiver with a mass of 75 kg achieves a terminal velocity of about 350 km/h while traveling in a pike (head first) position, minimizing the area and his drag. In a spread-eagle position, that terminal velocity may decrease to about 200 km/h as the area increases. This terminal velocity becomes much smaller after the parachute opens.
