By understanding some basic aerodynamic principles, it becomes possible to identify these components, understand the magnitude of their different contributions to the overall drag, and see how we can ...

Ideally, an object's thrust needs to be higher than its drag in order to sustain the forward motion. The more aerodynamic an ...

the car is so slippery that it creates less drag than a modern Porsche 911, which has a coefficient of about 0.3. The incredibly aerodynamic surfaces of the car mean that at 60 mph the Persu ...
