Formula Used

Aerodynamic Normal Force = Normal force coefficient*Dynamic Pressure*Reference Area
Z = C_z*q*S
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Aerodynamic Normal Force - (Measured in Newton) - Aerodynamic normal force is the component of aerodynamic force along the yaw axis of an aircraft.
Normal force coefficient - Normal force coefficient is the dimensionless coefficient associated with the component of aerodynamic forces along the yaw axis on an aircraft.
Dynamic Pressure - (Measured in Pascal) - Dynamic Pressure is simply a convenient name for the quantity which represents the decrease in the pressure due to the velocity of the fluid.
Reference Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - The Reference Area is arbitrarily an area that is characteristic of the object being considered. For an aircraft wing, the wing's planform area is called the reference wing area or simply wing area.

What is the most aerodynamic shape for a rocket?

Nose cone and rocket diameter affect drag. At supersonic speeds, the best shape is a narrower and sharper point. Rockets with a larger diameter have more drag because there is more air being pushed out of the way.
