MCAT Question of the Day
    •

    Q:

    		 Objects have a terminal velocity due to air resistance but do not have a similar terminal velocity due to friction when sliding across surfaces. This is because:
    		 

    A

    		 objects sliding down inclines are completely subject to the force of gravity while objects falling through the air are not.

    B

    		 air resistance is proportional to velocity while kinetic friction is irrespective of velocity.

    C

    		 kinetic friction is weaker than static friction.

    D

    		 objects attached to surfaces are not subject to air resistance.
