Terminal velocity (disambiguation) | An object reaches terminal velocity when the downward force of gravity (Fg) equals the upward force of drag  (Fd). The net force on the body is then zero, and the result is that the velocity of the object remains constant. | | skydiver | free-fall | parachute | km/h | mph | m/s | asymptotic | freeflying | peregrine falcon | Joseph Kittinger | buoyancy | see derivation | gravitational acceleration | drag coefficient | density | drag equation | barometric formula | drag equation | inverse hyperbolic tangent | hyperbolic tangent | buoyancy force | Creeping flow past a sphere: streamlines, drag force Fd and force by gravity Fg. | | streamlines | creeping flows | Reynolds number | Navier-Stokes equation | viscosity | Stokes | Stokes law | falling sphere viscometer | Stokes law | 2007 | 12-20 | Categories | Fluid dynamics |
