Hi, Please help with terminal velocity equations;

The equation for terminal velocity is v= √(2mg/ρAC)

Wherein:

v = terminal velocity (m/s)

m = mass (kg)

g = gravity (9.8 m/s2)

r = density (for air at sea level we will use 1.5 kg/m3)

A = cross-sectional area of the object (for our scenario, we will use a cube with A=1.5 m2)

C = drag co-efficient (we will use 1.05 for the drag co-efficient of a cube)

Your job:

.Calculate the terminal velocity of five cubes. You may need to convert!

Cube #1 has a mass of 2000 g.

Cube #2 has a mass of 4000 g.

Cube #3 has a mass of 5 kg.

Cube #4 has a mass of 6 kg.

Cube #5 has a mass of 0.479652 slugs.

Your answer for “v” should have four decimal places.

1. *****Please show step by step Instruction on how solve the equation for terminal velocity*******

2. *****Please show the equation used in excel on how to determine Terminal Velocity*************

Thank you, Donna
