Drag force equation?
| |
I want to know alternative ways of modeling air resistance force without using vt=root(2mg/CPA) or d(t)=vt^2 ln(cosh(gt/vt))/g thanks in advance. |

Its been a while, but I think I remember drag being: FD=(1/2)pv2AC Where: p is the pressure of the fluid in Pa v is the velocity in m/s2 A is the reference area (the cross-sectional area perpendicular to the direction of drag) in m2 C is the drag coefficient for the object (dimensionless)
