The force that resists the motion of the aircraft through the air. One type of drag is caused by air molecules. As the aircraft flies through the molecules, they resist the motion of the aircraft. This resistance is due to friction between the air molecules and the surface of the aircraft. Airplanes are streamlined to decrease the drag force.

The aerodynamic resistance experienced as a car travels forwards.

The air's resistance to moving objects.

The resisting force exerted on an aircraft in its line of flight opposite in direction to its motion. Compare Thrust.

An aerodynamic force that acts in the direction of the airstream flowing over an airfoil.*

Drag, alongside rolling resistance, is the key factor determining the dynamics of a vehicle and its fuel economy. The higher the drag, the more power is needed to accelerate the vehicle to a certain speed and maintain it. Drag is created by the displacement of air around the vehicle and the frictional impact of that air on the surface of the vehicl [..]

 You can use your mouse, or finger by tapping and holding, to drag icons and other objects on your computer screen.

A force that resists movement, slowing the object down

Aerodynamic forces that make you have to work harder and slow you down. In cycling, drag is the result of a number of things, including the wind speed and direction, plus the bicycle, equipment and clothing that all catch the air to some degree. This is why so many companies use wind tunnels in their bicycle design and testing process.

Force that resists an object's movement through the air. The more the object disrupts the laminar flow of air around it, the more drag is developed.

The aerodynamic resistance presented by the air to an object moving through it.

The mechanical system in a reel that applies friction to the spool; also the force of water against a fly line or leader that causes the fly to move in an unnatural manner.
