    The concurso de arrastre (Spanish for "dragging test") is a pulling game where oxen or cows drag a weight. It is also known as tiru güeis , tira bueis ( Cantabrian for "oxen pulling"), arrastre de narras , arrastre de basnas ("sleigh dragging"), arrastre de piedra ("stone dragging") or simply arrastre ("dragging").

  4. Drag coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_coefficient

    Drag coefficients in fluids with Reynolds number approximately 10 4 [1] [2] Shapes are depicted with the same projected frontal area. In fluid dynamics, the drag coefficient (commonly denoted as: , or ) is a dimensionless quantity that is used to quantify the drag or resistance of an object in a fluid environment, such as air or water.

  5. Drag (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_(physics)

    In fluid dynamics, drag, sometimes referred to as fluid resistance, is a force acting opposite to the relative motion of any object moving with respect to a surrounding fluid. [1]

    Barrida (arrastre) Dragging: One partner sweeps the others foot by displacing it along the floor. Bicicleta: Pedaling: Movement which resembles pedaling on a bicycle. Induced by the leader placing his foot under or to the side of the follower's foot and lifting and lowering it. Empujadita: Small push: Displacement of the follower's leg by the ...

  7. Drag equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_equation

    The equation is precise – it simply provides the definition of (drag coefficient), which varies with the Reynolds number and is found by experiment. Of particular importance is the u 2 {\displaystyle u^{2}} dependence on flow velocity, meaning that fluid drag increases with the square of flow velocity.

  9. Parasitic drag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasitic_drag

    Form drag arises because of the shape of the object. The general size and shape of the body are the most important factors in form drag; bodies with a larger presented cross-section will have a higher drag than thinner bodies; sleek ("streamlined") objects have lower form drag.
