The air drag is a force that depends on the speed of an object relative to the wind. Under certain conditions, it can be modeled as:
Where b is a constant.
As a falling object reaches a speed so that its weight is cancelled out by the air drag, the object will reach a maximum velocity.
In a speed vs time gaph, the speed would approach the maximum speed like an asymptote.
On the other hand, since the object falls from rest, the initial speed on the graph must be zero.
Taking these considerations into account, the correct graph for the movement of an object that falls from rest if air drag is not ignored, is option B.
