What is another word for terminal velocities?
Pronunciation: [tˈɜːmɪnə͡l vəlˈɒsɪtiz] (IPA) 
Terminal velocities refer to the maximum speed an object can reach during free fall due to the opposing forces of gravity and air resistance. Other terms that can be used synonymously with terminal velocities include maximum descent rate, ultimate speed, and final velocity. Additionally, terminal velocity can be categorized further into two types; stable terminal velocity and unstable terminal velocity. Stable terminal velocity occurs when the opposing forces of gravity and air resistance are balanced and the object falls at a constant speed, while unstable terminal velocity occurs when the object's speed oscillates due to imbalanced forces acting upon it. Understanding terminal velocities is crucial in various fields such as aeronautics, engineering, and physics.
