If someone drags you somewhere, they pull you there, or force you to go there by physically threatening you. The vigilantes dragged the men out of the vehicles
The effect of air resistance Drag (D) = f(V/A) * K * Ø * P * Di2 * V2, where f(V/A) is a coefficient related to the ratio of the velocity of the projectile to the velocity of sound in the medium through which it travels Sound through air at 68°F (20°C) at sea level travels at 1,128 6 fps (344 mps) K is a constant for the shape of the projectile Ø is a constant for yaw (deviation from linear flight) P is the density of the medium, Di is the diameter (caliber) of the projectile, and V the velocity The degree to which a projectile is slowed by drag is called retardation (r) given by the formula: r = D / M, where M is the mass of the projectile Drag is also influenced by the spin of the projectile The faster the spin, the less likely a projectile will "yaw" or turn sideways and tumble However, if the projectile spins too fast, it will not "turn over" at the top of its trajectory (apogee) and so will not strike the target nose-first
a slow inhalation (as of tobacco smoke); "he took a puff on his pipe"; "he took a drag on his cigarette and expelled the smoke slowly"
To be drawn along, as a rope or dress, on the ground; to trail; to be moved onward along the ground, or along the bottom of the sea, as an anchor that does not hold
