In the absence of air resistance, a falling rock gains kinetic energy and loses potential energy, while the total energy of the rock remains constant. in the presence of air resistance, however, the rock eventually reaches terminal velocity. now the kinetic energy is constant, but the potential energy continues to decrease as the rock falls toward the ground. why is some energy missing?
