∙ 6y agoAs a skydiver falls, they accelerate due to the force of gravity. However, they eventually reach their terminal velocity when the upward force of air resistance balances the downward force of gravity. At terminal velocity, the forces are balanced and the skydiver no longer accelerates.
Light travels faster through space because it encounters fewer obstacles and medium to slow it down, unlike through a window where it can be refracted or absorbed by the materials in the window, which can slow down its speed.
Sound waves travel fastest through solid materials because the particles are closely packed together, allowing for faster transmission of vibrations. In general, the denser the material, the faster the speed of sound.
Sound travels faster through solids compared to liquids and gases because the particles in solids are closer together, allowing for faster transmission of sound waves.
Electricity is faster than sound. The speed of electricity through a conductor is close to the speed of light, which is much faster than the speed of sound through air.
Sound travels faster through a solid block of metal compared to air due to the higher density and stiffness of the metal, allowing sound waves to travel more efficiently.
The Earth's gravity exerts a constant pulling force on any falling object making it go faster (accelerate)
100 kilometres/ hour = 62.5 mph so 100 kilometres/ hour would be faster

PeaPlants cannot grow faster than corn plants. To investigate this idea through scientific inquiry....do it your self!
No. In free fall, where mechanical energy is conserved, the falling object would go faster and faster. In this case, to fall at a constant speed, mechanical energy is lost, due to friction.
A whale's song travels faster than a bird's chirp. This is because a whale's song travels through water, where sound moves much faster than it does in air.
metres per second or kilometres per hour. There will be others for slower or faster objects.
It depends upon your speed. The faster you go, the less time it takes.
The Tasmanian devil is faster, as Speedy Gonzalez is fictitious. Pedantics aside, the devil has a top running speed of about 13 kilometres per hour.
Faster.

It is better to take two antacid tablets instead of one because it will more easily travel through the blood stream. It also might get there faster.
