The superintendent of a national cemetery wants to erect a larger than usual flagpole and flag. The flag pole is 120 ft tall. The flag has a height, H = 18 ft, and a length, L = 36 ft. Assume the flag pole must withstand a wind of 55 mile/hr at 32°F when the flag is flying. The drag coefficient of the flag can be estimated by CD = 0.05L/H. If the pole has a diameter of 8.5 in., determine the total force exerted on the pole. Assume that the pole is a smooth long cylinder and that the total drag is superposition of those for the stand alone flag and pole

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
