Answer:

1) It would never achieve terminal velocity, since without any form of resistance "Terminal Velocity" would be infinite. Therefore it would simply continue to accelerate at 10mS2. Personally I don't care what happens to it at c or c2 'co even if it couldn't exceed c, or did transmute into energy at c2, by that time it'd be a feckin' long way away!

2) It's spelled PhysiCist!

3) What do you mean by "terminal Velocity"? For example, TV for a Skydiver flying belly to earth (assuming normal UK Summer temperatures and pressures, and below 19,000ft above MSL) is about 200kmh, rising towards 320kmh dependent on body position. other things have a higher or lower TV.

Mike.
