A 2790 lb car has a frontal cross-sectional area A of 21.1 ft2, a drag coefficient Cd of 0.25, and a drive (or tractive) force of 280 lbs. Assume an air density of 2.3x10-3 slug/ft?, Here is a list of frontal areas and drag coefficients for cars. This web site has interesting information on how the physics we are learning is incorporated into video games with cars.

3. An airplane (weight 3,000 lb, wing span 35.5 ft, wing area 135 ft2, Oswald efficiency factor 0.85, zero-lift drag coefficient 0.05) flies with 90 kts at 8,000 ft. The asymmetrical airfoil has a lift-curve slope of 0.1 per degree, a zero-lift angle of attack of -3.0°, and a stall angle of attack of 15°. Assume a linear lift curve all the way to the stall. a. Calculate the density at the flight altitude in slug/ft? (6 points)
A Toyota Prius has the following attributes: Drag Coefficient Ca = 0.24, Frontal Area Af = 25.83 ft?, weight = 3064 lb, and Speed = 90 mph. Use air density p = 0.002378 slugs/ft3. The vehicle from problem 2 above is travelling down a 4% grade on pavement located at 5000-ft altitude (p = 0.002045 slugs/ft?) with its maximum speed. Overall resistance for the motion of the car at maximum speed is overcome with a power of 28hp. Determine the...
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...
1. A football has a mass of mp = 0.413 kg. It can be approximated as an ellipsoid 6 in diameter and 12 in long. A 'Hail Mary' pass is thrown upward at a 45° angle with an initial velocity of 55 mph. Air density at sea level is p= 1.22 kg/m². Neglect any spin on the ball and any lift force. Assume turbulent flow and a constant air-drag coefficient of Cp = 0.13. The equation of motion of the...
