Sparky needs to design a device that accelerates air in order to keep some the inflatable eagle fully inflated for some university events.  The velocity through the device (V) is linear (ax + b, where a and b are constants).  Since the inflatable is used on top of the ski/tubing run at Snowflex the wind velocity entering the device at x1 of 0 (V1) is 10 m/sec.  Sparky needs the velocity at the exit of the 1 m-long (x2) device to be 25 m/sec (V2).  For force calculations Sparky needs to know the local acceleration, convective acceleration, and total acceleration at the device inlet (x1 = 0 m) and exit (x2 = 1 m).  What are these values?

Sparky needs to design a device that accelerates air in order to keep some the inflatable eagle
fully inflated for some university events. The velocity through the device (V) is linear (ax + b,
where a and b are constants). Since the inflatable is used on top of the ski/tubing run at
Snowflex the wind velocity entering the device at x₁ of 0 (V₁) is 10 m/sec. Sparky needs the
velocity at the exit of the 1 m-long (x₂) device to be 25 m/sec (V₂). For force calculations Sparky
needs to know the local acceleration, convective acceleration, and total acceleration at the
device inlet (x₁ = 0 m) and exit (x₂ = 1 m). What are these values?
