How long does it take an object to fall when dropped? - Answers

The traditional acceleration due to gravity (9.8meters per second per second) is assuming a vacuum. However, for shortfalls, it works out well.For longer falls, the force of gravity is eventually equaled by the force ofair resistance. At this time the speed remains constant. As you are likelyaware, in order to have a change in velocity, an unbalanced force isrequired.The "terminal velocity" is determined by the shape of the object. Skydivers can speed up and slow down by changing the shape they present to therelative wind (the air going by them). Ultimately, they open theirparachute and greatly increase the for of the air resistance... (luckily!)slowing them down considerably.
