Sugarless gum can also be used as a vehicle to deliver medicaments that may benefit oral and systemic health. Chewing gum products can be formulated to assist caries reduction by remineralization or neutralization of plaque acid.
The net force on the object then, is zero, and the result is that the velocity of the object remains constant. Terminal velocity is the highest velocity attainable by an object as it falls through a fluid (air is the most common example, but the concept applies equally to any fluid). It occurs when the sum of the drag force (Fd) and the buoyancy is equal to the downward force of gravity (FG) acting on the object.
, first published back in 1970, a 77 kg (170 lb) person would reach terminal velocity after about 14 seconds. They would fall nearly 10,000 feet (3,048 meters) in one minute. Cliff divers are not in the air for anywhere near 14 seconds.This is why they can dive and survive.ome living creatures have a terminal velocity that is not fatal. For example, ants can survive falls from heights that would be easily fatal for humans. But cliff diving ants would not be nearly as popular with tourists in Acapulco.
