Fart = v2

Fart = Fg

Therefore, Fg = v2

Fg = weight

Fg = may

v2y = may

v = square root of ma

v = at

square root of ma = at

the a's cancel out and I'm left with square root m = t


m=mass , t=time , Fg=force of gravity , v=velocity , y=yaxis , ar=air resistance , art=air resistance at terminal velocity , a=acceleration

This is obviously wrong, but what makes it so? As long as it is at terminal velocity and at y axis, in other words, uniform motion, there is obviously no way to come to terms with a relationship between mass and time, right?

You lost me at the first line.

Fart = v2

Are you stating that the force from the air resistance on an object is equal to its velocity squared? Where did you get this relationship from?
 
force of air resistance at terminal velocity

force of air resistance at terminal velocity

According to who or what law? Do you have a reference or a source for this equation?
 
This is a gag thread, right? We don't generally deal with the dynamics of farts here.
 
This is probably completely unrlated but did I see somewhere distance being the squarroot of time?
