Use the Buckingham -theorem to show that the drag force (FD) that water flowing at a velocity (V) exerts against immersed objects (cylinders, people, piers, flat plates, vehicles, etc.) is

where Cd is the drag coefficient and A is the cross-sectional area of the object per­pendicular to the flow. The functional relationship is

 Use V, A, and p as repeating variables.
