Game Day!


Today was the opening game of the 2011 Auburn football season. While at the game I was aware of the drag forces that were acting on Spirit as he flew around the stadium during the pre-game activities. This drag force acts in the same direction as the flow of the fluid (in this case, the air). In aerodynamics, drag is closely associated with lift and if it wasn't for the drag force, auburn fans would not be able to enjoy watching the eagle soar around the stadium. WAR EAGLE!!
