A coin is being dropped from the top of a building. When will it reach terminal velocity? How does the force of gravity compare to the force of air resistance? Take a look at the [[https://www.glowscript.org/#/user/david.pastula/folder/MyPrograms/program/TerminalVelocity-MinimalProgram/edit | unfinished code]] and answer the following questions: | A coin is being dropped from the top of a building.
