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:

It becomes greater as it speeds up

What happens to the net force acting on it?

answer/question/discussion:

The net force decreases as its velocity increases

What happens to its acceleration?

answer/question/discussion:

The acceleration decreases as it approaches terminal velocity

If it dropped from a much higher point, what would happen to the net force and the acceleration?

answer/question/discussion:

The same would occur, as velocity increased the net force would decrease and the acceleration would decrease
