What is one example of a resistant force? Explain why it is called resistant.Why does no motion occur in an object at equilibrium?Why is the force of friction between two blocks reduced by adding dishwashing liquid between them?Why does your upper body want to keep moving when you stop running suddenly?

Answer :

One example of resistive force is the drag force acting on the object falling vertically downward.

The drag force acts in the opposite direction of motion of the object, thus, in the case of a vertically falling object, the drag force acts in the vertically upward direction.

It is known as resistant because it opposes the motion of the object.
