An airplane has wings, each with area 3.85 m2, designed so that air flows over the top of the wing at 248 m/s and underneath the wing at 226 m/s. Approximately what size wings would an aircraft need on Mars if its engine generates the same differences in speed as in the "Practice It" and the total mass of the craft is 300 kg? The density of air on the surface of Mars is approximately one percent Earth's density at sea level, and the acceleration of gravity on the surface of Mars is about 3.8 m/s2. ______________m2
A flat roof is very susceptible to wind damage during a thunderstorm and/or tornado. If a flat roof has an area of 520 m2 and winds of speed 43.0 m/s blow across it, determine the magnitude of the force exerted on the roof. The density of air is 1.29 kg/m3.
A tank of mass 20 kg containing 100 kg of water (density 1000 kg/m3) is raised vertically at a constant speed of 100 m/min for 1min, during which time it leaks water at a rate of 40 kg/min. Calculate the total work performed in raising the container.

*15-116. The 200-kg boat is powered by the fan which develops a slipstream having a diameter of 0.75 m. If the fan ejects air with a speed of 14 m/s, measured relative to the boat, determine the initial acceleration of the boat if it is initially at rest. Assume that air has a constant density of Pw = 1.22 kg/m and that the entering air is essentially at rest. Neglect the drag resistance of the water. 0.75 m
An 'anti-drowning' bracelet is a water safety device. It contains a CO2 cartridge that can quickly inflate an airbag to help a diver rise to the surface in an emergency situation. Robert Irwin (son of "The ID: 2 0 1 Rep: 2 1 0 Crocodile Hunter" Steve Irwin) is snorkeling at the Great Barrier Reef Eq: 1 0 (Pseawater 1029 kg/m3). He swims 5.0 m below the surface of the water when there is an emergency and he activates the bracelet. The mass of Robert and his gear is 69.2 kg and the volume of salt water he displaces is 0.07 m3 before the safety device is activated. Once he activates the device, it inflates to a volume of 0.01 m3.

A 2.5-cm-diameter horizontal water jet with a speed of Vj = 40 m/s relative to the ground is deflected by a 60° stationary cone whose base diameter is 25 cm. Water velocity along the cone varies linearly from zero at the cone surface to the incoming jet speed of 40 m/s at the free surface. Disregarding the effect of gravity and the shear forces, determine the horizontal force F needed to hold the cone stationary.
A hose lying on the ground has water coming out of it at a speed of 5.4 meters per second. You lift the nozzle of the hose to a height of 2.3 meters above the ground. At what speed does the water now come out of the hose?
61. ssm Prairie dogs are burrowing rodents. They do not suffocate in their burrows, because the effect of air speed on pressure creates sufficient air circulation. The animals maintain a difference in the shapes of two entrances to the burrow, and because of this difference, the air (p = 1.29 kg/m³) blows past the openings at different speeds, as the drawing indicates. Assuming that the openings are at the same vertical level, find the difference in air pressure between the openings and indicate which way the air circulates. "A = 8.5 m/s vg = 1.1 m/s
