The drag coefficient of a vehicle increases when its windows are rolled down of its sunroof is
opened. A sport car has a frontal are of 1.672 m² and a drag coefficient of 0.32 when the windows
and sunroof are closed. The drag coefficient increases to 0.41 when the sunroof is opened.
Determine the additional power consumption of the car when the sunroof is opened at 120 km/hr.
Given that:
Density of air = 1.2 kg/m³
Sunroof
closed
Sunroof
Cp=0.32
