The drag coefficient of a car at the design conditions of 1 atm, 25°c, and 90 km/h is to be determined experimentally in a large

wind tunnel in a full-scale test. the height and width of the car are 1.25 m and 1.65 m, respectively. if the horizontal force acting on the car is measured to be 230 n, determine the total drag coefficient of this car. take the density of air at 1 atm and 25°c as ρ = 1.164 kg/m3. (round the final answer to two decimal places.)

Velocity = 90 km/h = 25 m/s

Drag coefficient, Cd = 2D/Density of air*Frontal area*sqr. velocity

Substituting,

Cd = (2*230)/(1.164*1.25*1.65*25^2) = 0.3066

an apple in a tree has a gravitational potential energy of 175J and a mass of 0.36g . how high from the ground is the apple
Neko [114]
The equation for potential energy is denoted as; 

Pe = mgh,

where m = the mass, g = acceleration due to gravity, and h = vertical height of the apple. We are given the units for everything but height, which is also what we are solving for. We can then algebraically rearrange our initial equation to solve for h;

h = (Pe)/(mg)

Plug in your given units, and solve!





Post-check:

h = Pe/mg

h = 175J/(0.36g)(-9.81m/s^2)

h = appr. 49.5 meters

Note: Potential energy is a vector quantity; the displacement of the apple will be a negative number, but the distance itself, a scalar quantity, will be the absolute value of that.

Balanced. They’re equally as strong so as their arm wrestling, neither of the men’s hands go down. Because they’re equally/balanced as strong.
