Well "drag" is usually used to describe something that will slow you, like a drag suit worn over a jammer or Fastskins, or simply wearing another suit. Swimming without that will not slow you at all, therefore in practice swimmers use drag to improve and go faster in meets.
In a drag vs velocity graph, the relationship between drag and velocity is that as velocity increases, drag also increases. This means that the drag force acting on an object moving through a fluid (like air or water) becomes stronger as the object moves faster.
For cylinders coefficient of lift is approximately half of coefficient of drag while they are equal for Aerofoils.
When you are not in a streamline position in swimming, drag can occur. This is when you body is stopping the water from freely moving past your body. You may notice when you begin to sink while you are swimming that you slow down. This is because the lower part of your body is creating drag by stopping the water from quickly passing you legs.
Swimming is mainly on your side to create less drag and allow you to move through the water faster
Yes. The preopistion in that sentence is 'for' and the object of the preposition(what it is too cold for) is swimming.
hahaha no
So that it does not cause drag and slow you down while swimming.
There is no difference between the two. It is also called profile drag.
A simple way to put it would be; - Decrease drag - Improve propulsion
Lift is opposite of weight Thrust is opposite drag. When lift >weight plane climbs. If lift < weight you best find a place to land. If thrust> drag you accelerate. If drag>thrust you slow down. High and fast are your friends. Low and slow are out to kill you.
so you do not drag in the water... say your on a bike and the wind is pushing against you that the wind resistance in the air... while as your swimming if you r wearing a drag suit it will slow you down.... that's why swimmers where fastskins, lazers, and other tight suits.....
Resistance is drag caused naturally by the water being forced around your body and swimsuit.
