Drag force is the force exerted on a moving vehicle that's caused by air resistance. The formula for this force is as follows: Ed = Cd A p V 2 Where: Ed is the drag force in (lbs) Ca is the coefficient of drag (0.26) A is the vehicle's front area (ft) p is the air density (0.0077 lb/ft) V is the vehicle's velocity (ft/sec) Create a MATLAB program that will input vehicle's front area and velocity and compute and output the draq force. Declare the coefficient of drag and air density as constant. Sample Output: Input vehicle's front area: 30 Input Velocity: 88 Drag Force (Ed) in lbs = 232.552 Drag force is the force exerted on a moving vehicle that's caused by air resistance.
