Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The force of ____ is a type of friction that works against the motion of falling objects.
A
Terminal Velocity
B
Gravity
C
Wind
D
Air Resistance
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Air resistance, which is also known as drag, is a kind of friction (a force that opposes motion) which occurs between air and another object. It is the force that the object experiences as it passes through the air.

Detailed explanation-2: -The air resistance is a special type of frictional force that acts upon objects as they travel through the air. The force of air resistance is often observed to oppose the motion of an object.

Detailed explanation-3: -Air resistance is a force that is caused due to air when an object moves through it. This force acts in the opposite direction to a body passing through the air. Air resistance exerts a frictional force against the moving body. As a body moves, air resistance decelerates it down.

Detailed explanation-4: -The force that is produced by air is known as air resistance. When an object is travelling through the air, the force works in the opposite direction. The resistance generated by substances in touch as they move past one another is known as friction.
