(25pts) A car has a drag coefficient of CD=0.3 The area of the car is 24ft2. The weight of the car is 3000lbf. The car is travelling at V=75mph through air at sea level (ρ=0.0024 slug/ft3). Treat the rolling friction as μ=0.015. Model the power needed to move the car per the lecture as: . Watch your units. What is the power needed to travel at 75mph, in units of horsepower (hp)? How long does it take to travel one...
Hint: Use 1D relative velocity to find the velocity of the car with respect to the air, which is used to find the drag force. A 2520 lb car has a frontal cross-sectional area A of 20.0 ft2, a drag coefficient Cd of 0.25, and a drive (or tractive) force of 250 lbs. Assume an air density of 2.3x10-3 slug/ft3, Here is a list of frontal areas and drag coefficients for cars. This web site has interesting information on how...
