A site with a number of excellent simulations. The one on terminal velocity is particularly well done. |
The drops begin falling as rain or ice crystals as snow when they grow to a size that makes their terminal velocity faster than the rising air. |
At terminal velocity, of course, these jumpers open a parachute and float to the ground. |
Increasing difference in the density of particle and solid results in higher terminal velocity. |
This opposes the falling motion, decreases the falling speed, and results in a lower terminal velocity. |
There are signs that the art market reached terminal velocity in 2015, and is now starting to slow down. |
