Homework Statement
an object with a mass of 1.21g is falling at a constant velocity of 1.1 m/s. What is the force of air resistance exerted on the object?
Homework Equations
f=ma
The Attempt at a Solution
i imagined that if the object is falling at a constant velocity, then acceleration is 0. so it seems that f=0, but that's obviously not true. i have no idea how to do this
EDIT: according to the book, the answer is about .0119N, I am not sure how to arrive at that answer
