Answer: The drag force goes up by a factor of 4
Explanation:
The <u>Drag Force</u> equation is:
(1)
Where:
is the Drag Force
is the Drag coefficient, which depends on the material
is the density of the fluid where the bicycle is moving (<u>air in this case)
</u>
is the transversal area of the body or object
the bicycle's velocity
Now, if we assume ,
and
do not change, we can rewrite (1) as:
(2)
Where groups all these coefficients.
So, if we have a new velocity , which is the double of the former velocity:
(3)
Equation (2) is written as:
(4)
Comparing (2) and (4) we can conclude<u> the Drag force is four times greater when the speed is doubled.</u>
The percent difference between two numbers and
is given by
The absolute value is there because we only care about the absolute percent difference, and not taking into account whether we go from to
or vice versa. If we remove them, we have two possible interpretations of percent difference.
For example, the (absolute) percent difference between 3 and 6 is
In other words, we add 100% of 3 to 3 to end up with 6. This is the same as the percent difference going from 3 to 6. On the other hand, the percent difference going from 6 to 3 is
which is to say, we take away 50% of 6 away from 6 to end up with 3.
"Make comparisons to object measurements" tells us that the differences should be computed relative to "measurements for object". In other words, take from the left column and
from the right column.
