air resistance

1. what is the upward force exerted on an object falling through the air? * 5 points

Explanation:

• Question 14: Gravity is a force that acts downward on objects. Momentum is \( p = mv\) (mass times velocity), terminal velocity is a constant velocity (not a force), and air resistance acts upward.
• Question 15: Air resistance is the force that acts opposite to the direction of motion (upward for a falling object).

Answer:

1. gravity
2. air resistance
