Insert the information in the form and the calculator will determine the terminal velocity.

What is the terminal velocity?

The terminal velocity is the maximum speed attainable by an object as it falls through a fluid.

How to calculate terminal velocity?

To calculate terminal velocity you should use the following formula:
terminal velocity = √((2 * mass of the object * g) / (density * projected area * drag coefficient))
where:
g = 9.80665

Why use terminal velocity?

The terminal velocity is used in order to demonstrate how objects fall through fluids and how they behave once they reach a certain velocity.
