User: explain how molecules in the air cause air resistance?

Weegy: When moving air molecules out of the way, the object pushes harder than usual. When the object pushes harder on the molecules, the molecules push back harder. This extra push from the air molecules is air pressure.

User: explain why air resistance is longer when the car is travelling faster?

The air resistance is longer when the car is travelling faster because the faster an object moves, the more particles it has to deal with at once, making further movement more difficult.
