b) 516.89 hp
Explanation:
<u>given:</u>
<u>required:</u>
the power in hp
<u>solution:</u>
.............(1)
by substituting in the equation (1)
=353.27 lbf
..........(2)
by substituting in the equation (2)
= 2769.29 lbf
power is defined by
P=F.V
353.27*36.67
=12954.411 lbf.ft/s
=12954.411*.001818
=23.551 hp
2769.29*102.67
= 284323 lbf.ft/s
= 284323*.001818
= 516.89 hp
