What causes skateboard speed to increase or decrease?
Gravity, friction, or wind drag.
How does a windsurfer increase drag?
A windsurfer can increase drag by using a larger sail or reducing the angle of attack to catch more wind, by dragging their feet or body in the water, or by using a larger, less streamlined board that creates more resistance in the water.
Gas is to car and wind is to what?
as wind is to sailboat. You stole my answer! Let's see, what else, oh ya, to a wind surfer.

When is drag useful?
Drag is useful in aeronautics and automotive design to reduce air resistance and improve fuel efficiency. In sports such as cycling and skiing, minimizing drag can increase speed and performance. Drag is also important in the design of structures to ensure stability and reduce wind loads.
How does aircraft drag increase with speed?
Drag increases by the square of velocity increase, for example, tripling speed increases drag by a factor of nine!
How can you increase drag?
You can increase drag by increasing the surface area of an object, changing its shape to be less streamlined, or by roughening its surface. Additionally, increasing the speed of an object can also increase drag.
Is it possible to attach a wind turbine to an airplane to increase efficiency?
No. The amount of energy gained will be less than spent by the aircraft to overcome the drag created by your turbine.
How do you get the kite in poptropica in katie' s kite place?
you go to the wind surfer and click on it
Why doesn't the wind surfer just fall to the ground?
It is all a question of practice and balance.
How do you increase drag?
You can increase drag by increasing the surface area exposed to the flow of air or water, or by changing the shape of the object to create more resistance. Adding rough textures or projections can also help increase drag.
Will speeding up decrease the drag force on an airplane?
In general (special exceptions may apply) increase speed = increase drag.
