Suppose a car moving through the air is similarly modeled as a cylinder of area A pushing a growing disk of air in front of it. The originally stationary air is set into motion at the constant speed v of the cylinder as shown in Figure P8.32. In a time interval t, a new disk of air of mass m must be moved a distance v t and hence must be given a kinetic energy 12(m)v2. Using this model, show that the cars power loss owing to air resistance is 12Av3 and that the resistive force acting on the car is 12Av2, where is the density of air. Compare this result with the empirical expression 12DAv2 for the resistive force. Figure P8.32arrow_forward
