The dominant form of drag experienced by vehicles (bikes, cars, planes, etc.) at operating speeds is called form drag. it increases quadratically with velocity (essentially because the amount of air you run into increases with v and so does the amount of force you must exert on each small volume of air). thus fdrag = c dav2, where a is the cross-sectional area of the vehicle and cd is called the coefficient of drag.

consider a vehicle moving with constant velocity v. find the power dissipated by form drag.

The “death throes” of stars are amongst the most complex phenomena in all of astronomy, and the “corpses” of stars amongst the most energetic and exotic objects in existence. beginning at the end of the core helium fusion stage in a star’s life, describe in detail the post-main sequence development of both (a) a 1.0 solar mass star, and (b) a 25.0 solar mass star. in what significant ways do they differ? what role does each of these types of stars play in the "star-gas-star" cycle and the evolution of chemical elements in our galaxy?
