What is importance of air resistance?
Air resistance is the force exerted on an object when it travels through an atmosphere. It can be used to slow objects down, such as skydivers, however in most applications, the object is to avoid air resistance. Vehicles, such as a Toyota Prius, or air planes, such as a commercial jet, strive to avoid air resistance (or become more aerodynamic) as a way to decrease fuel consumption or increase maximum speed. Air resistance increases exponentially with an object's velocity.
What is air resistance and what are the two factors that air resistance depends on?
Air Resistance is a force.
How molecules in the air cause air resistance?
How molecules in the air cause air resistance?
What is the force that opposes the motion of objects through air?
Air Resistance is the kinetic friction of the object's surface moving through the air. In aeronautical terms this is known as drag.
Is air resistance in a ball being thrown?
Yes, air resistance is on everything where there is air.
Why it is important for satellites be outside the earth's atmosphere?
Air resistance. if in air they would slow down and fall.

What force slows objects moving through the air?
Air resistance

Why does the oscillation of a pendulum gradually slows down after a certain interval of time?
Energy is gradually lost, through air resistance, and resistance in the string.Energy is gradually lost, through air resistance, and resistance in the string.Energy is gradually lost, through air resistance, and resistance in the string.Energy is gradually lost, through air resistance, and resistance in the string.

How does surface area affect air resistance?
air resistance affects
What is the relationship between air resistance and movement?
air resistance is cooler
When an object falls through the air encounters air resistance its overall speed will be than if it had not encountered air resistance?
The resistance do obstruct the object. The object always travel slower with air resistance. Air resistance is higher with velocity and the object falling through air would have a limited velocity that it can't go through.
How are air resistance and friction alike?
Air resistance is a type of fluid friction (along with water resistance) and is therefore is a type of friction.
