    Experimental work to prove that the Drag Coefficient of a sphere is 0.5

    Yeah I have access to a wind tunnel... It's not a repost since I've decided now to focus on proving that the drag coefficient of a sphere is 0.5. The only thing I need to think of is an experiment to measure the drag force...but can't come up with one :mad:

    Experimental work to prove that the Drag Coefficient of a sphere is 0.5

    Is there any experiments I could do to prove that the Drag Coefficient of a Sphere is more or less 0.5 depending on the roughness of the sphere?

    How Does Changing Velocity and Area Affect Sphere Aerodynamics?

    Yeah maybe your right sponge is not so good... "What data do you hope to get from the tunnel? How will you relate those things to a sphere's overall motion? You'll get some drag data, but how are you going to use that data?" That is my problem since I'm not entirely sure how to get some...

    How Does Changing Velocity and Area Affect Sphere Aerodynamics?

    Yes it does have to be an experimental setup unfortunatelY!

    How Does Changing Velocity and Area Affect Sphere Aerodynamics?

    I have to do an investigation about the Aerodynamics of a ball/sphere and I have to look at how changing the velocity and the cross-sectional area of the ball affects it's motion. I'm planning to build a wind tunnel out of cardboard and put a fan in it to generate the velocity wanted...I've...
