3. The drag force of an object moving through a fluid is found to be FD = CpAv² where Cis the drag coefficient, A is the area of the object facing the fluid, and p is the density of the fluid. The drag coefficient is determined experimentally. Using this form of the drag force, calculate the terminal velocity of a 75 kg skydiver in 2 positions: diving head first like an arrow (C=0.70, A=0.18 m²) and laying horizontal (C=1.0, A=2 m²). The density of air is p = 1.21 kg/m³.
Example: u = xt+ 2y v = xt'-yt w = 0 Given: What is the acceleration at a point x-1 m, y=2 m, and at a time t=3 s?
3. Determine drag on the sphere for flow past a sphere (see the figure below) using these parameters D (diameter of sphere), p (density), u (viscosity), u (velocity), Fo (Drag on the sphere).
