- jameshart 3y agoNot if you’re moving at constant speed. The air molecules are experiencing acceleration.
- uoaei 3y agoPlease define "drag" in a way that somehow contradicts what I said...
- jameshart 3y agoThe setup for our thought experiment here is someone traveling at constant speed. By definition they are not experiencing any acceleration. If they are experiencing a drag force they are also experiencing a thrust force that is equal to it because they are traveling at a constant speed. ‘Feeling the effect of a force’ is not the same thing as ‘experiencing an acceleration’.
