True/False:  Air resistance is a force that only happens when an object is moving.   True/False:  Air resistance is different than the force that can happen with the wind, since the wind can push on an object that isn’t moving. True/False: The forces due to wind, air resistance, and friction between a sliding object and a stationary one always point in the opposite direction of motion.   True/False:  The force of friction between a sliding object and a stationary one is greater when the surfaces are rougher because the bumps and grooves on the two surfaces bump into each other.   True/False:  If you drop three regular-size pieces of paper, all crumpled a different amount, from a high wall, the initial force of air resistance will be the same on all three pieces of paper because they are all light.

Question
  1. True/False:  Air resistance is a force that only happens when an object is moving.  
  2. True/False:  Air resistance is different than the force that can happen with the wind, since the wind can push on an object that isn’t moving.
  3. True/False: The forces due to wind, air resistance, and friction between a sliding object and a stationary one always point in the opposite direction of motion.  
  4. True/False:  The force of friction between a sliding object and a stationary one is greater when the surfaces are rougher because the bumps and grooves on the two surfaces bump into each other.  
  5. True/False:  If you drop three regular-size pieces of paper, all crumpled a different amount, from a high wall, the initial force of air resistance will be the same on all three pieces of paper because they are all light.  
  6. True/False:  If you drop three regular-size pieces of paper, all crumpled a different amount, from a high wall and all three eventually reach terminal velocity before they hit the ground, the air resistance will be the same on all three at that point.
