    This is so a minimum of air resistance or drag affects the dragster with lower drag better acceleration an in turn a better top speed can be achieved all leading to a better pass (race time). <br> <br>Now lets try to understand the concept of air resistance and drag. A basic example is placing your hand out the window with your palm facing forwards as you are driving your car along at about sixty kilometres per hour.

    the time it takes for the parachute to fall also increases. This is because the air resistance is larger‚ therefore the drag is increased. So the speed of the parachute decreases. This is because the forces (air resistance and gravity) are unbalanced. The change in air resistance is important because the larger the surface area of the canopy‚ the more air particles it is ‘hitting’; therefore the air resistance is bigger. Variables: In our investigation‚ the variable that we
