Terminal velocity, steady speed achieved by an object freely falling through a gas or liquid. ... An object dropped from rest will increase its speed until it reaches terminal velocity; an object forced to move faster than its terminal velocity will, upon release, slow down to this constant velocity.

What is a simple definition of terminal velocity?

: the limiting uniform velocity attained by a falling body when the resistance of the air has become equal to the force of gravity.

How fast is terminal velocity for a human?

about 200 km/h

In a stable, belly to earth position, terminal velocity of the human body is about 200 km/h (about 120 mph). A stable, freefly, head down position has a terminal speed of around 240-290 km/h (around 150-180 mph).
