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 resistance will increases as the speed increases.

• What happens to the net force acting on it?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
The increase in resistance will cause decreases in net force.

• What happens to its acceleration?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
The acceleration will increase at a slower than gravity acceleration due to resistance.
#$&*
• If it dropped from a much higher point, what would happen to the net force and the acceleration?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
The acceleration will increase until a net force of 0 is reached due to resistance than it will fall at a constant.
