* Terminal Velocity Explained: Terminal velocity is the maximum speed an object can reach while falling through a fluid (like air). It occurs when the force of gravity pulling the object down is balanced by the force of air resistance pushing it up.
* Helicopters Can Hover: Helicopters are able to generate lift using their rotors, allowing them to hover in the air. They don't rely solely on gravity to move.
* Controlled Descent: If a helicopter were to lose engine power, it would descend. However, the pilot can control the descent rate using the rotors to create some lift.
In short, helicopters are designed to control their descent and don't reach a fixed terminal velocity like an object falling freely.
