Hello eveyone,
excuse me I want to if the acceleration of free fall means that air resistance should be excluded to get the ratio g=9.8m/s2?
and plz what is meant by the terminal velocity?
help me soon ,any help is appreciated in advance, thanks. :|

Yes.

Terminal velocity is the term for the state an object reaches when the force of drag acting on it is equal to the force of gravity acting on it. When an object reaches its terminal velocity, it no longer accelerates, remaining at whatever velocity it was already traveling or else slowing down.

Any motion in a curved path represents accelerated motion, and requires a force directed toward the center of curvature of the path. This force is called the centripetal force which means "center seeking" force. The force has the magnitude m(v²/r).

Regarding book recommendation, do you need for course coverage or revision?
