What is effect of the weight of the helicopter on the terminal speed - slide3?

The weight of the helicopter affects the terminal speed by influencing the rate at which the helicopter falls. A heavier helicopter will reach a higher terminal velocity compared to a lighter helicopter, as the force of gravity will be greater on the heavier helicopter, causing it to accelerate faster. Additionally, a heavier helicopter may require more lift to counteract its weight, which can also impact its terminal speed.

Why a helicopter falling during auto-rotation could reach a terminal speed without the pilot changing any controls?

The helicopter begins to fall because gravity is pulling its weight. As the helicopter accelerates, the air passing past the helicopter creates drag, as the helicopter continues to accelerate the drag Increases until the drag becomes equal to the weight, stopping it from accelerating. Even if the helicopter did not auto rotate it would still reach a terminal speed, however the terminal speed for the non auto rotating helicopter would be a lot higher and the helicopter would take longer to reach this speed.
