The drag force on a car is given byF v D ACD = 122 where is the density of air (1.23

Chapter 5, Problem P5.36

(choose chapter or problem)

The drag force on a car is given byF v D ACD = 122 where is the density of air (1.23 kgm3), v is the velocity in units of ms, A is theprojected area of the car (2.5 m2), and CD is the drag coefficient (0.2).The amount of power in watts required to overcome such drag force is P = FDv, andthe equivalent horsepower required is Hp = P 746. Write a program that accepts acars velocity and computes the power in watts and in horsepower needed to overcomethe resulting drag force. Note: 1 mph = 0.447 ms.
