[TowerTalk] wind force equation

[Rex Lint]

Matt,

See http://www.knmi.nl/samenw/hydra/faq/press.html

Wind doesn't have a "force," it puts pressure on an area. Once you know the
pressure and the area, you can figure out the force.  The area depends on
shape and geometry.  Good luck!

Hi,
my name is matt and i was wondering if you could tell me some equations for 
the force of wind.  I am doing a project on excel with vectors and 
projectile motion and am having trouble finding an equation for it.  If you 
could help, that would be great!

thanks a lot,
matt
