Answer to Question #309211 in Physics for Paulnex

Question

A rain drop from 500m is not likely to attain a velocity of 100m/s2 explain.

Answer 1

The rain drop would have attained a velocity of 100m/s it there had been no air resistance. But, since the air resists the motion of the drop, it attain some lower constant velocity (usually approximately 9m/s).
