The forces that were exerted during the air resistance was the gravity.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Air resistance is the frictional power air applies against a moving article. As an article moves, air opposition backs it off. The quicker the article's movement, the more prominent the air obstruction applied against it.
The force acting upon the objects dropped in the air was air resistance and gravity. The force acting upon the objects dropped in the vacuum was gravity only.
