When a falling object reaches a speed where the force of ait resistance is equal to its weight it

Explanation

When an object falls through the air, gravity pulls it downward, increasing its speed. As its speed increases, the force of air resistance also increases. Eventually, the force of air resistance becomes equal to the object's weight. At this point, the object stops accelerating and continues to fall at a constant speed, known as terminal velocity. Therefore, option B is correct. Option A is incorrect because 'flying' involves a different concept of movement. Option C is wrong because the object does not slow down; it maintains a constant speed. Option D is incorrect because the object is not stationary; it is moving at a terminal velocity.
