(10pts) Solve for the section drag coefficient
for steady, incompressible flow past a cylinder.
The wake's velocity profile is symmetric and can
be approximated by the equation below. Hint:
Since the wake is symmetric, you only need to
solve one-half of the profile and then double it.
u(y)=V(y2D)32
