Question

At what points, is the air resistance greater than the weight of the body? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

As the object accelerates the air resistance increases but the weight stays the same, so the resultant force is not as great as before but the object is still accelerating. ... Therefore the object falls at a steady speed it is no longer accelerating. This is called terminal velocity.

Answer 2

Answer: At points 1 and 2, the air resistance is greater than the weight of body.

Explanation:-

As the object speeds up ( i.e, accelerates gradually), the air resistance affecting it increases. The weight of the object/body on the other hand is constant. The resultant force acting on it is not as large in magnitude as the force provided before. The object is still accelerating. Hence the object experiences a free fall where the effects of gravity as a force is neutralised for a certain time being and the object experiences weightlessness. This is called terminal velocity.
