    Air resistance is an opposing force often known as drag force. Air resistance acts in the opposite direction to snow skier’s velocity and can either harm or enhance performance of the athlete. The flow of air around an object causes the unavoidable effect of drag and is influenced by the size‚ shape‚ surface‚ and overall speed of an object (John Polson‚ 2013). Air resistance is present in snow skiers and can inhibit their performance in a race greatly if the proper precautions and positions are

    against cars in racing is drag. Drag is the force that acts on an object in the opposite direction of its motion. There are two types of drags in car racing‚ friction drag and pressure drag. Friction drag is friction between the surface of an object and the air. Friction drag does negative work against cars and slows them down. The more surface area that is able to be hit by the air the more it will work against the car. The other type of drag is Pressure drag. Pressure drag is caused by the pressure

    is called drag. Drag is the result of a number of physical phenonmena. Pressure drag is that which you feel when running on a windy day. The pressure of the wind in front of you is greater than the pressure of the wake behind you. Skin friction‚ or viscous drag‚ is that which swimmers may experience. The flow of water along a swimmer’s body creates a frictional force that slows the swimmer down. A rough surface will induce more frictional drag than a smooth surface. To reduce viscous drag‚ swimmers
