A visitor to the observation deck of a skyscraper manages to drop a penny over the edge. As the penrıy falls faster, the force due to air resistance increases. How does this affect the acceleration of the penny? O The acceleration remains constant and not zero. O The acceleration decreases. • The acceleration increases. O The acceleration remains zero.
