Billboards are large outdoor hoardings that
are used by advertisers. However, their
large surfaces at heights off the ground
means they have to withstand strong winds
during their useful life span. There is a need
to model and analyze a billboard stand that
must be capable of supporting a 5- meter x
2-meter billboard at a height of 4 meters
above the ground. The billboard will have
to withstand crosswinds with speeds up to
10 m/s.

Wind tunnels are used to measure the aerodynamic properties of prototype models. (a) if a fan
generates a wind speed of 25.0 mi/h inside an 8.75-ft2 section of a wind tunnel, what is the wind
speed as the air enters the narrower, 4.35-ft² section of the wind tunnel? (b) Explain why it is
often windier on city streets surrounded by tall buildings than in more open area
The force of the atmosphere at sea level against the outside of a 10 m2m2 store window is about 1 million NN. Why doesn't this shatter the window? Why might the window shatter in a strong wind blowing past?
