Terminal velocity - Physics Support Materials - for Higher Physics really - however the animations can be easily interpreted on a simpler level.

New Media - Multimedia Science School (reference only to CD-ROM based resource used in several LAs and schools) - Terminal Velocity - Excellent animation showing the affect on velocity of balanced and unbalanced forces in 2 scenarios – a cyclist and a parachutist. Pupils can alter factors such as pedalling forces, angle of slope. In the graphics the force arrows can be displayed and velocity-time graphs can be plotted. Allows overlaying of data for comparison.
