Thanks for your reply. But it was like a bonus question kind of thing, why 1/4 AV^2 instead of the other equation, he said the 1/4 will work for any speed less than speed of sound and uses normal air and something. And he said 1/4 is not the error that # is precise, so the problems got to be in...
I know that standard formula is, FD = 1/2 CD *ApV^2
FD = Drag Force. SI: N
CD = Drag Coefficient. SI: Dimensionless (Typical Values)
A = Coss-sectional Area perpendicular to the flow. SI: m2
r = Density of the medium. SI: kg/m3
v = Velocity of the body relative to the medium. SI: m/s...

Homework Statement
Two boxes are in contact with each other, both different mases, and are both being pulled by an external force, F.
M1M2--------->F
I can calculate the acceleration of the system but the Question asks to calculate the force between the mases, ie Newtons third law. If...
