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 increases
• What happens to the net force acting on it?
answer/question/discussion: the net force acting on it will increase too
• What happens to its acceleration?
answer/question/discussion: the acceleration increases causing the resistance force to increase
• If it dropped from a much higher point, what would happen to the net force and the acceleration?
answer/question/discussion: the net force against it would be higher but the acceleration would also increase proportionally
