Ako vypočítať Terminal Velocity

Čo je Terminal Velocity?

Terminal velocity is the maximum speed a falling object reaches when air resistance equals gravitational force. It depends on mass, cross-sectional area, and drag coefficient.

Vzorec

v_terminal = √(2 × m × g / (ρ × A × C_d))

Sprievodca krok za krokom

  1. 1Enter mass, drag coefficient, cross-sectional area
  2. 2Enter fluid density and gravitational acceleration
  3. 3Calculate terminal velocity from the formula

Worked Examples

Vstup
m = 80 kg, A = 0.5 m², C_d = 1.2, ρ = 1.2 kg/m³
Výsledok
v_t ≈ 52 m/s
~187 km/h or 116 mph for human skydiver

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Wrong drag coefficient for shape
  • Using height instead of area
