Drag Lift 10 x Velocity 14 Earth The most important ratio for wingsuit flight, is the glide ratio. It is the distance a glider travels horizontally over the distance the glider travels vertically. Think of it as run over fall (rise). The higher the ratio, the farther and longer a glider can travel before having to deploy the parachute. This ratio is associated with the angle of descent, 0. If we assume the diver is at constant velocity and there is no wind, the glide ratio is also equal to lift over drag (L/D). For the average wingsuit diver, the glide ratio = 2.5. Using the method of Newton's second law, and the free body diagram above, show that the glide ratio L/D is equal to cotangent 0. (Sum the forces in the x & y directions, then apply NSL) d) Now find a value for drag if the wingsuit diver's mass = 65.0 kg and her glide angle, 0 = 21.8. Using the expressions found above, obtain an expression for drag that doesn't include Lift. It will be in terms of the variables 0, m, & g. X
