Facets:
Source sentences:
text: At that point, the skydiver is said to have achieved terminal velocity.
text: It will continue to fall at constant velocity known as the terminal velocity.
text: The skydiver is said to have reached a terminal velocity.
text: The skydiver is said to have reached a terminal velocity.
text: As the speed decreases, the amount of air resistance also decreases until once more the skydiver reaches a terminal velocity.
text: While travelling at terminal velocity, the skydiver will be able to adjust his or her body position in a way that will increase or decrease the air resistance and allow the diver to alter their speed.
text: This acceleration reduces over a few seconds and approaches zero as the skydiver reaches terminal velocity.
text: While travelling at terminal velocity, the skydiver will be able to adjust his or her body position in a way that will increase or decrease the air resistance and allow the diver to alter their speed.
text: While travelling at terminal velocity, the skydiver will be able to adjust his or her body position in a way that will increase or decrease the air resistance and allow the diver to alter their speed.
text: Fairly quickly the skydiver will reach terminal velocity (the speed at which their acceleration from gravity is cancelled out by the resistance of the air through which they are falling).
text: The skydiver cannot increase their mass easily enough to significantly increase terminal velocity, and the skydiver's area cross-section is limited by their helmet and shoulders in a head-down dive position.
text: when the skydiver jumps out of the plane his weight makes him accelerate, soon the air resistance balances out the forces, but his terminal velocity is too great for him to land safely, son he opens a parachute, the parachute makes the air resistance greater, as it has a larger surface area.
