Aerodynamics is the branch of physics that studies the motion of air and other gaseous fluids and the forces acting on bodies moving through them. It is primarily concerned with the forces of lift and drag that allow aircraft to fly or vehicles to move efficiently.

💬 Example

"The bicycle's sleek frame was designed specifically to improve its aerodynamics for racing."
