\nt{The linear drag model $F_D=bv$ is valid for low-Reynolds-number flow (small objects, slow speeds, viscous fluids). For most everyday situations (baseballs, skydivers, cars at highway speed), drag is approximately quadratic: $F_D=\tfrac12 C\rho A v^2$, where $C$ is the drag coefficient, $\rho$ is the fluid density, and $A$ is the cross-sectional area. The AP exam typically uses the linear model for analytical tractability, but recognizes the quadratic model qualitatively.}
