Diagram 4 shows the air flow when a racing car, K, accelerates rapidly on a racing circuit.

When the
car accelerates, it experiences air resistance. The car has an aerofoil shape and a lower car base and
roof compared to a normal car.

DIAGRAM 4
Due to the air flow, there is a low pressure area and a high pressure area.
i.
a. Label the low pressure area with 'R' and the high pressure area with 'P' in Diagram 4. [2
