This Concept Trailer covers Further Applications of Newton's Laws: Friction, Drag, and Elasticity and corresponds to Chapter 5 in OpenStax College Physics for AP Courses.

Felix Baumgartner’s record-setting 39-km jump, in which he reached supersonic speed before opening a parachute, illustrates air drag as well as the gravitational force. The trailer displays how an object’s terminal speed depends on its drag coefficient, its weight, and other parameters.
