Re: help with air friction?



If I was to advise Tom Fredrick who wants to find how the air resistance
force depends on v I would suggest measuring three or more v_terminal for
spheres of different masses (same radius). The air resistance is m*g for
each sphere. Free vertical fall, naturally. Boyancy correction for very
precise data. Easier to say that to do.
