= M/V –> D / (A * .5 * r * V^2) [Density Figures Into Drag]

LYRICS
= M/V
The severity
Of the density
Then once you know
How it goes into the flow
Thick is sick
Can you come back quick
Not that slick
Led by lead
A sinker not a thinker
Oh, what a drag
Once again…
See how you fit in?
Can’t hit a snag
When you are the drag
Oh so efficient
As the co-efficient
Why on Earth would that make you brag
Oh… what a drag
Your density is getting to me
Let go of my flow!

= M/V
The severity
Of the density
Then once you know
How it goes into the flow
Thick is sick
Oh what a drag

This song is about the abuse scientists experience online.

People,
Please oh please keep your political opinions out of science.
Thank you,
The management

When a particularly abusive knucklehead kept attacking me with their stupidity, racism, and bigotry, I replied:
= M/V –> D / (A * .5 * r * V^2)

M/V is the formula for density.
D / (A * .5 * r * V^2) is the formula for the co-efficient of drag.

So this response was both figuratively and literally appropriate. The person’s dense intellect figures into their being such a drag. The formulas also critically prove the impact of human induced climate change.

From Climate Change: The Equation / Brouse and Mukherjee (2023)

Technically Speaking, It’s Not the Momentum That Kills You

It’s not the fall that kills you; it’s the sudden stop at the end.

Technically speaking it is the impact from the momentum that causes damage and deaths. Global warming causes an increase in mass and/or velocity (momentum) of things that are mass flow driven by heat, like wind and flood.

The burning of fossil fuels and other human released emissions have impacted momentum’s impact. A warmer atmosphere can hold more moisture. Warmer air allows for the creation of more massive raindrops. Warmer ocean temperatures create stronger hurricanes. Hail and tornadoes form in strong thunderstorm clouds with intense updrafts, high liquid-water content, and large water droplets.

Sidd added: It’s worse than that. Wind and water flow forces scale as the square of velocity, so as flow speeds increase (say due to more intense heating or heavier rain) the damage scales as the square of the velocity.

About “square of the velocity”, I asked Sidd: is this Bernoulli’s Equation?

Sidd replied:

look at Wikipedia: Drag (Physics)
you will see that force is proportional to density times square of velocity (v^2)

So a twenty mile an hour wind exerts four times as much force as a ten mile an hour wind. And a forty mile an hour wind exerts sixteen times as much force as a ten mile an hour wind. A wind of fifty miles an hour exerts twenty five times and a wind of sixty miles an hour exerts thirty six times as much force as one of ten miles an hour. Then you have the density term. Water is about eight hundred times denser than air, So the force exerted by a ten mile an hour flow of water is eight hundred times that of a ten mile an hour wind. So as flow velocities go up due to climate change, force and damage scale as square of the velocities. What is not clear is how much these velocities increase with climate change. But in a sense we are seeing this already as, for example, flood and sewage systems succumb and hillsides fall down, and so on.
