Can be calculated like this:. P / (R T). P = pressure, Pascals (multiply mb by 100 to get Pascals). R = gas constant, J/(kg * °K) = 287.05 °K for dry air;. T = temperature, °K = °C 273.15. Drag coefficient, dimensionless. 7 m/s In other words V. W = Weight of the rider and bike, kg. W = Weight of the rider and bike, kg.
