a) A wind turbine with two or four hollow hemispherical cups connected to a pivot is
commonly uscd to measure wind speed. Consider a wind turbine with four 8-cm-
diameter cups with a center-to-center distance of 40 cm, as shown in Fig. PI1-35.
The pivot is stuck as a result of some malfunction, and the cups stop rotating. For
a wind speed of 15 m/s and air density of 1.25 kg/m3, determine the maximum
torque this turbine applies on the pivot.

Water from a fire hose is directed toward a building as shown in the figure below. The water leaves the hose at a speed of
vi = 40.0 m/s
and at an angle of
θi = 35.0°
above the horizontal. The base of the hose (at ground level) is a horizontal distance
d = 51.0 m
away from the building. Find the height h (in m) where the water strikes the building.
A fireman on the ground sprays water from a fire hose onto a building. The water leaves the hose with velocity vector vi at an acute angle θi above the horizontal and curves downwards just before it strikes the building at a height h above the ground. The building is a horizontal distance d from the fireman.

Once it leaves the hose, the water moves in projectile motion. The firemen adjust the angle of elevation θ of the hose until the water takes 3.0 s to reach a building 45.0 m away. You can ignore air resistance; assume that the end of the hose is at ground level. (a) Find the angle of elevation θ.
