Q.

Which among the following is the correct formula for drag?

A. D = Cd * A * 0.5 * r * V2
B. D = Cd * A * 0.5 * r * V*2
C. D = Cd * A * 0.5 * r * V/2
D. D = 0.5 * r * V
Answer» A. D = Cd * A * 0.5 * r * V2
Explanation: The drag force acts in the opposite direction to that of the relative flow velocity. It acts in the opposite direction with respect to a surrounding fluid flow. Thus, the correct option is D = Cd * A * 0.5 * r * V2.
