Huh? Drag force isn't logical.
It is to me. No, it is merely consistant with your experience. That is empirical, not theoretical. Drag force can be derived in theory, but that requires knowledge of atoms and molecules, which themselves are not logical. The universe could be made up of wiggly strings, for all we know. That it is made up of atoms is another =experimental= result. That they are governed by quantum mechanics is yet =another= experimental result, which is most =definately= not logical. Jose -- Get high on gasoline: fly an airplane. for Email, make the obvious change in the address.

Nope, it's logical to me. That explains a lot.  Jose -- Get high on gasoline: fly an airplane. for Email, make the obvious change in the address.
