For a new sailboat, a designer wants to determine the drag force that may be expected at a given speed. To do so, she places a model of the proposed hull in a test channel and uses three cables to keep its bow on the center-line of the channel. Dynamometer readings indicate that for a given speed, the tension is 35 lb in cable AB and 40 lb in cable AE. The drag force is exerted in the direction of Flow at point A. -7 ft 1.5 ft B a 4 ft Flow A 4 ft E What is the magnitude of the drag force in Ib? What is the magnitude of the tension force in cable AC in Ib? What is the angle a in degrees measured CCW from the vertical? What is the angle B in degrees measured CW from the vertical?

Air at a temperature of 15°C and a pressure of 1 Atm at a speed of 100 km / h figure below-a da it crashes into the visible water tower. Free at Figure-b to prevent Tower toppling as seen in the object diagram, the moment(M)that the base of the tower must resist calculate. The resistance coefficient for the cylinder part is 0.7, the resistance coefficient for the sphere part is 0.3 you may take.
Note: Don't copy from other websites solution, those are wrong solutions. The trailer travels at U = 39 mi/h. The air is still and has a temperature of 60°F. Assume the surfaces are smooth and flat Consider both laminar and turbulent boundary layers. (Figure 1) Part A :Determine the drag acting on each side of the trailer truck.
A carpenter drops by accident a tool from a tall building. When falling the air resistance depends on the speed and is given by a (drag) = 0.003 v2 What is the time it takes the tool to reach a speed of 20 m/s?
A light truck weighs 3,300 lb and is rated at 30 miles per gallon for 52 mph highway driving on level ground. Under those conditions, the engine must overcome air resistance, rolling resistance, and other sources of friction. Give your answers in the units shown. (a) The coefficient of drag is 0.55 at 52 mph, and the truck's frontal area is 28 ft. What is the drag force on the truck? (Express your answer using three significant figures.) Fo Ib (b) How much power must the engine produce at 52 mph just to overcome air resistance? (Express your answer using three significant figures.) hp (c) In part (b) how much gasoline would be consumed each hour (neglecting other frictional effects)? (Express your answer using three significant figures.) V = gal
The rectangular wing of a trainer aircraft has a wingspan of 15.5 m and a chord of 3 m, the chord being parallel to the direction of the airflow. The aircraft is flying at standard sea level conditions with a velocity of 102 mps. Considering laminar flow only, determine total skin friction drag (N, 2 decimals).
