The best description that encompasses all the factors needed to determine an object's terminal velocity is:
**the object’s weight and area it presents, as well as air density.**
This is because terminal velocity is influenced by the object's weight, the cross-sectional area it presents to the airflow, and the density of the air in which it moves, along with the object's drag coefficient.
