As we explained in Chapter 7, the air resistance to motion of a vehicle is something important that engineers investigate. As you may also know, the drag force acting on a car is determined experimentally by placing the car in a wind tunnel. The air speed inside the tunnel is changed, and the drag force acting on the car is measured. For a given car, the experimental data is generally represented by a single coefficient that is called drag coefficient. It is defined by the following relationship: Fa Cả where Ca = drag coefficient (unitless) Fa = measured drag force (N or 1b) p= air density (kg/m³ or slugs/ft') V = air speed inside the wind tunnel (m/s or ft/s) A = frontal area of the car (m? or ft') The frontal area A represents the frontal projection of the car's area and could be approximated simply by multiplying 0.85 times the width and the height of a rectangle that outlines the front of a car. This is the area that you see when you view the car from a direction normal to…arrow_forward
