Dr. Beck is walking to class at 1 m/s (
absolute velocity) into a headwind that is
blowing at 2 m/s. This headwind
applies a 25 N drag force on Dr. Beck.
As Dr. Beck continues to walk by the
library at 1 m/s, the building blocks the
headwind (new headwind = 0 m/s).
What is the drag force due to air
resistance on Dr. Beck as he walks by
the library with no wind?
