    How does weight affect air resistance?

    Drag force = 0.5*(density of fluid)*(velocity^2)*(drag coefficient)*(cross sectional area) so weight does not affect the drag force. However, with everything else staying the same (shape/cross sectional area), the weight will determine how quickly terminal velocity is reached as seen in the...
