The air resistance force is proportional the square of the velocity. I can solve for this air resistance constant by assuming the video scene shows the ship falling at terminal velocity.

This means there is zero air resistance force and only the downward gravitational force. ... Let's look at three examples. Drop 1: A basketball and bowling ball.

Air resistance, water resistance and friction are forces impacting on how we move in our daily lives. Let's explore how they do this and how we use these forces to our advantage. Key Facts ...
