Определение terminal velocity в Английский Язык Английский Язык словарь
The speed at which an object in free-fall and not in a vacuum ceases to accelerate downwards because the force of gravity is equal and opposite to the drag force acting against it
maximum constant velocity that a non freely falling object reaches when a retarding force balances the gravitational force and the objects acceleration is zero
the constant maximum velocity reached by a body falling through the atmosphere under the attraction of gravity
The velocity at which the driving forces are cancelled out by the resistive forces Terminal velocity depends a great deal upon the shape of the object that is facing the direction it is moving Once an object has reached terminal velocity, the object is not accelerating (a=0), therefore it is not speeding up or slowing down It is a constant velocity unless the driving forces or the resistive forces change Typically, Terminal Velocity is only a possibility when you are dealing with fluid friction as opposed to contact friction like static or kinetic friction
or fallspeed, the speed at which a particular body's weight is balanced by its drag as it falls through a particular fluid
The final velocity of falling solid particles in water or in air or of raindrops in air
The maximum velocity attainable, especially by a freely falling body, under the given conditions
Maximum speed that can be achieve by a body falling through a fluid like water or air
The speed at which drag matches the pull of gravity, resulting in a constant fall rate Typical terminal velocity for formation skydiving is in the 120 to 135 mile per hour range, but speeds as high as 300 miles per hour have been reached
The speed at which a Skydiver falls when the friction of the air on their body is equal to and counter acts the force of gravity so that they no longer accelerate It is about 120 mph in a flat stable position, lying on the air, face down The Skydiver can fall faster or slower, up to a point, by changing their body position
The maximum speed of an object through a fluid An object reaches terminal velocity when all the forces on it balance out
