Answer:
[tex]C=2.32\times 10^{-4}\ Ns^2/m^2[/tex]
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of the golf ball, m = 46 g = 0.046 kg
Terminal speed of the ball, v = 44 m/s
The drag force, [tex]F_r=Cv^2[/tex]
Where, C is the drag coefficient. At terminal speed, the weight of the ball is balanced by the drag force.
[tex]Cv^2=mg[/tex]
[tex]C=\dfrac{mg}{v^2}[/tex]
[tex]C=\dfrac{0.046\times 9.8}{(44)^2}[/tex]
[tex]C=2.32\times 10^{-4}\ Ns^2/m^2[/tex]
Hence, this is the required solution.
