What happens to the forces acting on a falling object at terminal velocity?

Physics

Answer: Objects falling through a fluid eventually reach terminal velocity. At terminal velocity, the object moves at a steady speed in a constant direction because the resultant force acting on it is zero.

Precautions to be taken for the displacement method
finlep [7]

Volume by Displacement. The displacement method (submersion, or dunking method) can be used to accurately measure the volume of the human body and other oddly shaped objects by measuring the volume of fluid displaced when the object is submerged.

The following precautions should be taken very observantly:-

The line of sight must be perpendicular to measuring scale to avoid parallax error. Formation of bubbles inside the cylinder should be completely avoided. Any bubbles within leads to wrong measurements.

Car A, moving in a straight line at a constant speed of 20. meters per second, is initially 200 meters behind car B, moving in t
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
First, let's express the movement of Car A and B in terms of their position over time (relative to car B)
For car A: y=20x-200   Car A moves 20 meters every second x, and starts 200 meters behind car B
For Car B: y= 15x      Car B moves 15 meters every second and starts at our basis point

Set the two equations equal to one another to find the time x at which they meet:
20x - 200 = 15x
200 = 5x 
x= 40
At time x=40 seconds, the cars meet. How far will Car A have traveled at this time? 
Car A moves 20 meters every second:
20 x 40 = 800 meters
