Is it safe to ignore derivatives of velocity w.r.t. position and vice versa? The distinction between partial and total derivatives is rather crucial here. If it was total derivatives we were talking about, your approach would be right. However, by definition, partial derivaties ignore any dependance other than explicit! |

Air drag coefficient value I woudn't say that the formula is only valid in the laminar flow regime. It is usually applied for higher Reynolds numbers, as opposed to Stokes drag. However, we need to remember that the formula is 1) only approximate and 2) often less helpful then it seems, as for large class of objects $C_d$ depends an awful lot on the velocity |

Linear polarizer and the angle of incidence Yes, sorry, as Piotr has assumed I mainly meant a typical polaroid sheet |
