Question:

What is Terminal Velocity? Use it when saying what happens to a falling object decently high

Author: go kys



Answer:

When objects fall, they accelerate as because their weight via gravity is bigger then the air resistance. However the both of them are directly proportional [R=K x V] meaning acceleration slows down, until you balance the forces, meaning no acceleration. The object has reached its maximum velocity, Its Terminal Velocity.
