The chapter covers the fundamental concepts of drag and lift forces in fluid mechanics, exploring their definitions and applications in various scenarios, including sports and engineering design. It emphasizes the role of coefficients of drag and lift, as well as their dependence on factors like shape, velocity, and Reynolds number. Real-life examples illustrate these concepts, culminating in practical exercises and activities that deepen understanding of drag and lift phenomena.
