Question:
Some runners train with parachutes that trail behind them to provide a large drag force. These parachutes are designed to have a large drag coefficient. One model expands to a square 1.8 m on a side, with a drag coefficient of 1.4. A runner completes a 200 m run at 5.0 m/s with this chute trailing behind. How much thermal energy is added to the air by the drag force?
