drag force calculations over a cyclist

Objective: Write a Python program to calculate drag force against a cyclist.

Factors: The factors involved are Velocity,Drag coefficient,Frontal Area,Density of air.

  • a program to plot Velocity vs Drag force.

drag_force=`1/2*rho*area*v^2*cd`

density kg/m^3

rho=1.2

area m^2

a=0.1

drag co_eff

c_d=0.9

diffrent velocities

empty array for store the different drag force value according to the velocities

running the for loop to store the drag force value accoring to the velocities

append value to deag force empty array

print the drag force

plot velocity vs. Drag force

program to plot Drag Co-efficient vs Drag force

drag force over a bicyccle

density

rho=1.225

area

a=0.36

velocity

velocity=35

diffrent cd

c_d=[0.11,0.22,0.44,0.66,0.88]

empty array for store the different drag force value according to the velocities

running the for loop to store the drag force value accoring to the cd

append value to deag force empty array

print the drag force

plot cd vs. Drag force
