    Discussion: As shown in the result section‚ the drag force increases steadily with increasing wind speed. However‚ for high wind speeds with largest sphere‚ this is not true. There is a region that the sphere experiences a large drop of drag force. The drag coefficient remains relatively constant for most cases. However‚ when a Reynolds number reach about 300‚000‚ and the sphere is the largest one; for this case‚ the drag coefficient drops abruptly. We also found that for the same wind speed‚ the

This paper examines the research process and the data that was collected in order to determine the lift to drag ratio for various angles of attack. Objectives To experimentally determine both the coefficient of lift 〖(C〗_L) and the coefficient of drag (C_D) of a Piper Saratoga when it is flown at different angles of attack (α). This data will be used to calculate the lift to drag ratio (L/D) for various angles

    Aim: To measure how the size of a parachute t’s surface area affects the parachute’s speed‚ acceleration and time of flight. Hypothesis: A parachute with a larger surface area would fall slower due to that fact there would be a higher level of drag‚ or in other words more air resistance. Materials: * Sturdy garbage bags * Metric ruler * Scissors * Washers * Twist ties * Light-weight string * Stopwatch Method: 1.Gather all equipment necessary for this experiment

    The Physics of Badminton Gerard Ramos Physics 4A Prof. Scott Hildreth I would like to start off with a light introduction to the sport of Badminton. Badminton is a sport that isn’t too popular in the United States; some people would even say that it shouldn’t even be called a “sport”. The majority see badminton from a “back-yard sport” point of view‚ part of this is due to the lack of actual badminton court facilities in America‚ also because it’s a bit expensive to play. Badminton is not

    Skydiving can be an exhilarating sport whether it is deadly or done correctly. Skydiving is the sport of jumping from an aircraft and performing acrobatic maneuvers in the air under free fall before landing on the ground with a parachute. As the skydiver falls‚ he or she encounters the force of air resistance. The amount of air resistance is dependent on two variables‚ speed and cross-sectional area. The speed of the skydiver accelerates downwards and gains speed with each second. The increase in
