A wad of paper is dropped from a second-story balcony and falls through still air to the ground.
• As it speeds up, what happens to the air resistance it encounters?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
the air resistance will also increase
#$&*
• What happens to the net force acting on it?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
stays the same
@& Air resistance changes. Unless other forces somehow change to compensate for this the net force will not remain constant.*@
@& What forces act on the falling paper and what are their directions?
If air resisatance increases, what happens to the sum of the two forces acting on the object?
What effect will this have on its acceleration?*@
#$&*
• What happens to its acceleration?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
it will increase
#$&*
• If it dropped from a much higher point, what would happen to the net force and the acceleration?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
the higher point the net force and acceleration will increase
