#2 | | Puts the sexy in dyslexia | When I first read this, I was definitely thinking "ACT scores" instead of AP scores...it's amazing how much that little difference changed the meaning of your post. |

So really, "What is the air speed velocity of an unlaiden swallow?"
It's quite simple:
Drag on a body in a fluid is:
D = 1/2 (Cd*pi*r^2*rho*Vo^2) Cd = coefficient of drag of the swallow pi = 3.1415... r = radius of bird cross-section (approximating as a circle) rho = viscosity of air Vo = velocity For steady state flight, D (drag) = T (thrust), so:
------------------------------
| Vo = sqrt(T/Cd*pi*r^2*rho) |

#9 | | Red Sox Rocker | Nice...I think I got 4 on AP Calc, and 5 on AP English...I was excited. And then I figured out that my major doesn't involve math. Maybe it'll work for a core class...

| I think I got a 3 or 4 on the English and a 2 on the US History ... but that was quite a while ago.
