Question
The more aerodynamic a vehicle is, the less fuel the vehicle’s engine must use to overcome air resistance. To design vehicles that are as fuel efficient as possible, automotive engineers use the formula R =0.00256 where R is the air resistance (in pounds), is the drag coefficient, is the frontal area of the vehicle (in square feet), and s is the speed of the vehicle (in miles per hour). The formula assumes that there is no wind. Find the drag coefficient of a car when the air resistance is 50 pounds, the frontal area is 25 square feet, and the speed of the car is 45 miles per hour.
