    Cube Projectile Motion: Air Resistance & Cross Sectional Area

    We have a solid cube with some mass that we fire as a projectile at some angle. The cube is launched in such a way that two of the faces are perpendicular to the initial velocity vector. Assuming there is air resistance, would the cube change its orientation while it flies, even if the mass is...

    Cross sectional area (NOT A QUESTION)

    Just for those who don't know a thing about cross sectional areas, I thought I'd explain. A cross sectional area describes the area of a flat (2-dimensional) representation of a 3-dimensional object. So if I cut a cylinder, instead of seeing two circles, I see four circles (unless there are...
