A roller coaster train with a mass of 500 kg stops at the top of a hill. If the hill is 110 m high, what is the potential
energy of the train?
O 4,900 J
O 5,612J
0 55.000 J
539,000

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D. 539,000 J

Explanation:

The formula for potential energy(P.E) =mgh where m is mass of object, g is gravity acceleration 9.8 m/s² and h is height in meters.

From the question ;

m=500 kg

g= 9.8 m/s²

h= 110 m

P.E = mgh

     = 500*9.8*110

     =539,000 J

 Answer option D

The other options are incorrect because the calculated values for the potential energy of the train are not equal to 539,000 J.

The volume of sludge produced is 0.5 MGD. What is most nearly the solids residence time

Answers

Answer:

11 hours approximately

Explanation:

We are to calculate mean cell residence time mcrt

= Mass of solid in reactor/mass of solid wasted in a day

Q = Qe + We

Q = 2.5

Qw = 0.5

Qe = 2.5 - 0.5

= 2 MGD

10⁶/svi

= 10⁶/125

= 8000

X = 3500

Xe = 20mg/

1MGD = 0.1337million

Mcrt = 75000x3500/[0.5*8000*10⁶+2*20*10⁶] x 0.1337

= 262500000/[4000000000+40000000} x 0.1337

= 262500000/574800000

= 0.45668 days

= 0.45668 x 24 hours

5.5 A scraper with a 275 hp diesel engine will be used to excavate and haul earth for a highway project. An evaluation of the job-site conditions indicates the scraper will operate 40 min./hr. For this project it is anticipated that the total cycle time will be 20 min. for a round trip. Previous job records show the scraper operated at full power for the 1.5 min. required to fill the bowl of the scraper and at 80% of the rated hp for the balance of the cycle time. Calculate the gallons per hour for fuel consumption of the scraper.

Answers

Answer: Fuel consumption per hour of the scrapper is 6 gal/hr

Explanation:

Given that;

Rated power = 275 hP

The scraper will work = 40min per hr

anticipated total cycle time = 20min

Previous Scrapper operated full power for 1.5min at 80% hP

First we find the Engine factor;

filling the bucket =  1.5/20 * 100% = 0.075

rest of cycle = (20-1.5)/20 * 80% =  0.74

so total engine factor = 0.075 + 0.74 = 0.815

now Time factor will be 40/60 = 0.6666 =

therefore operating factor = 0.6666 * 0.815 = 0.543

Now we know that for a diesel engine, a range fuel consumption = 0.04 gal/hP

so

Fuel consumption per hour of the scrapper is;

= 0.543 * 275 * 0.04

= 5.97 = 6 gal/hr

When determining risk, it is necessary to estimate all routes of exposure in order to determine a total dose (or CDI). Recognizing this, estimate the total chronic daily intake of toluene from exposure to a city water supply that contains toluene at a concentration equal to the drinking water standard of 1 mg/L over a period of 10 years. Assume the exposed individual is an adult female that is exposed to the chemical via drinking water and inhaling gaseous toluene released while she showers. Use the given parameters to calculate the CDI for water consumption. For inhalation, assume the woman takes a 15-minute shower every day. Assume the average air concentration of toluene during the shower is 1 μg/m3 and that she breathes at the adult rate of 20 m3/day.

Answers

Answer:

The following are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

The Formula for calculating CDI:

[tex]\bold{CDI = \frac{C \times CR \times EF \times ED}{BW \times AT}}[/tex]

[tex]_{where} \\ CDI = \text{Chronic daily Intake rate} (\frac{mg}{kg-day})} \\\\\text{C = concentration of Toluene}\\\\\text{CR = contact rate} \frac{L}{day}\\\\\text{EF = Exposure frequency} \frac{days}{year}\\\\\text{ED = Exposure duration (in years)} = 10 \ \ years\\\\\text{BW = Body weight (kg) = 70 kg for adult}\\\\ \text{AT = average period of exposure (days) }[/tex]

calculating the value of AT:

[tex]= 365 \frac{days}{year} \times 70 \ year \\\\ = 25550 \ days[/tex]

 calculating the value of Intake based drinking:

[tex]C = 1 \ \frac{mg}{L}[/tex]

[tex]CR = 2 \frac{L}{day}[/tex] Considering that adult females eat 2 L of water a day,

EF = 350 [tex]\frac{days}{year}[/tex] for drink

calculating the CDI value:

[tex]\to CDI = \frac{(1 \times 2 \times 350 \times 10)}{(70 \times 25550)}\\\\[/tex]

             [tex]= \frac{(2 \times 3500)}{(70 \times 25550)}\\\\ = \frac{(7000)}{(70 \times 25550)}\\\\ = \frac{(100)}{(25550)}\\\\=0.00391 \frac{mg}{ kg-day}[/tex]

Centered on inhalation, intake:

[tex]C = \frac{1 \mu g} { m^3} \ \ \ or \ \ \ \ 0.001 \ \ \frac{mg}{m^3}\\\\CR = 20 \frac{m^3}{day}\\\\EF = 15 \frac{min}{day} \ \ or\ \ 5475 \frac{min}{yr} \ \ \ or \ \ 3.80 \frac{days}{year}\\[/tex]

calculating the value of CDI:

[tex]\to CDI = \frac{(0.001 \times 20 \times 3.80 \times 10)}{(70 \times 25550)}[/tex]

Acoke can with inner diameter(di) of 75 mm, and wall thickness (t) of 0.1 mm, has internal pressure (pi) of 150 KPa and is suffered from a torque (T) of 100 Nmat one end (fixed at the other end). By neglecting the outside pressureand radial stresses, choose a proper 2D element and showcase the non-zero stresses on the element. Then, determine all three principal stresses and the maximum shear stress at that point.

Answers

Answer:

All 3 principal stress

1. 56.301mpa

2. 28.07mpa

3. 0mpa

Maximum shear stress = 14.116mpa

Explanation:

di = 75 = 0.075

wall thickness = 0.1 = 0.0001

internal pressure pi = 150 kpa = 150 x 10³

torque t = 100 Nm

finding all values

∂1 = 150x10³x0.075/2x0,0001

= 0.5625 = 56.25mpa

∂2 = 150x10³x75/4x0.1

= 28.12mpa

T = 16x100/(πx75x10³)²

∂1,2 = 1/2[(56.25+28.12) ± √(56.25-28.12)² + 4(1.207)²]

= 1/2[84.37±√791.2969+5.827396]

= 1/2[84.37±28.33]

∂1 = 1/2[84.37+28.33]

= 56.301mpa

∂2 = 1/2[84.37-28.33]

= 28.07mpa

This is a 2 d diagram donut is analyzed in 2 direction.

So ∂3 = 0mpa

∂max = 56.301-28.07/2

= 14.116mpa

The probability model for this experiment has the following information:
P[F]=0.5, P[HF]=0.2, P[MW]=0.1.
What is the sample space of the experiment?
Find the following probabilities P[W], P[MF], and P[H].

Answers

Answer:

A) P(W) = 0.5

B) P(MF) = 0.3

C) P(H) = 0.6

Explanation:

We are told that there are two types of cellular phones which are handheld phones (H) that you carry and mobile phones (M) that are mounted in vehicles.

Also, Phone calls can be classified by the traveling speed of the user as fast (F) or slow (W).

Thus, the sample space is combination of types and classification we are given and it is written as;

S = {HF, HW, MF, MW}

A) Now, phones can either be fast(F) or slow(W). Thus, we can write;

P(F) + P(W) = 1

We are given P(F) = 0.5

Thus;

0.5 + P(W) = 1

P(W) = 1 - 0.5

P(W) = 0.5

B) Now, from the problem statement, a phone call can either be made with a handheld(H) or mobile(M). Thus the sample space partition is {H, M} and we can express as;

P(H ∩ F) + P(M ∩ F) = P(F)

We are given P[F] = 0.5 and P[HF] = 0.2.

P(H ∩ F) is same as P[HF]

Also, P(M ∩ F) is same as P(MF)

Thus;

0.2 + P(MF) = 0.5

P(MF) = 0.5 - 0.2

P(MF) = 0.3

C) Similarly, mobile Phone calls can either be fast or slow. It means the sample space partition is {F, W}

Thus;

P(M) = P(MW) + P(MF)

P(M) = 0.1 + 0.3

P(M) = 0.4

Now, since cellular phones can either be handheld(H) or Mobile(M), then we can say;

P(H) + P(M) = 1

P(H) + 0.4 = 1

P(H) = 1 - 0.4

P(H) = 0.6

A parallel helical gearset consists of a 19-tooth pinion driving a 57-tooth gear. The pinion has a left-hand helix angle of 30°, a normal pressure angle of 20°, and a normal module of 2.5 mm.
Find:_______.
(a) The normal, transverse, and axial circular pitches
(b) The transverse diametral pitch and the transverse pressure angle
(c) The addendum, dedendum, and pitch diameter of each gear

Answers

Answer:

a)

normal circular pitch = 7.8539 mm

transverse circular pitch = 9.0689 mm

axial circular pitches = 15.7077

b)

transverse diametral pitch is 0.3464 teeth/mm

transverse pressure angle is 22.8°

c)

Addendum = 2.5 mm

dedendum = 3.125 mm

pinion diameter = 54.8482 mm and Gear diameter = 164.5448 mm

Explanation:

Given that;

module m = 2.5 mm

Number of teeth on Gear  nG = 57 TEETH

Number of teeth on Pinion  nP = 19 TEETH

Helix angle W = 30°

Normal Pressure angle β = 20°

finding the circular pitch

Pc = πm

we substitute

Pc = π * 2.5 mm = 7.8539 mm

now the diametral pitch p = π / Pc

= π / 7.8539

= 0.4 teeth/mm

a)

So the normal circular pitch

Pn = π / P

Pn = π / 0.4

Pn = 7.8539 mm

the transverse circular pitch

Pt = Pn / cosW

Pt = 7.8539 / cos30°

Pt = 9.0689 mm

for axial circular pitches

Px = Pt / tanW

Px = 9.0689 / tan30°

Px = 15.7077

b)

The transverse diametral pitch and the transverse pressure angle.

The transverse diametral pitch Pt = PcosW

= 0.4 * cos30°

= 0.3464 teeth/mm

transverse diametral pitch is 0.3464 teeth/mm

transverse pressure angle  β1 = tan^-1 ( tan βn / cos W)

=  tan^-1 ( tan20° / cos 30°)

= tan^-1 ( 0.42027 )

β1 = 22.8°

transverse pressure angle is 22.8°

c)

The addendum, dedendum, and pitch diameter of each gear

Now from table standard Tooth proportions for Helical Gears;

Addendum a = 1/p

= 1 / 0.4

= 2.5 mm

dedendum b = 1.25 / p

= 1.25 / 0.4

= 3.125 mm

now  pinion diameter dP = Np / PcosW

= 19 / 0.4 (cos30°)

= 54.8482 mm

Gear diameter dG = nG / pcosW

= 57 / 0.4 (cos30°)

= 164.5448 mm

Answer:

1)   V_win = 7.05 10¹⁰ m³ ,  2)V_ lost = 1.8471 10¹⁰ m³, 3)  h = 633.4  mm

Explanation:

In this exercise we will start by reducing all units to the SI system

    h1 = 2.69 inch (2.54 10-2 m / 1 inch) = 6.8326 10⁻² m

    Ф1 = 356.747 ft3 / s (1 m3 / 35.3147 ft3) = 10.1019 m³ / s

    Ф2 = 717,258 ft3 / s = 20,310 m³ / s

    h2 = 18.7 mm (1 m / 1000 mm) = 18.7 10⁻³ m

    V_subterránea = - 783.33 10³ m,

Now let's answer the questions

1) they ask us the amount of water that reaches the lake in 2018

volume of rainwater is

      V₁ = A. h t

      V₁ = 82 100 106 * 6.8326 10-2 * 12

      V₁ = 6.7315 10 10 m3

stream water volume in a year

      V₂ = Ф₁ t

       t = 1 year (365 days / year) (24 h / 1 day) (3600 s / 1h) = 3.1536 10⁷ s

       V₂ = 10.1019 3.1536 10⁷

       v₂ = 31,857 10⁷ m³

The total water volume is

     V_win = V₁ + V₂

     V_win = 6.7315 10¹⁰ + 31.857 10⁷

     V_win = 7.05 10¹⁰ m³

2) let's find the amount of water lost from the lake

volume of water to surrounding bodies

         V₃ = Ф₂ t

         V₃ = 20.310 3.1536 10⁷

         V₃ = 6.40496 10 8 m3

Volume of evaporated water

         V₄ = A h₂ t

          V₄ = 82 100 10⁶ 18.1 10⁻³ 12

          V⁴ = 1,783 10¹⁰ m³

groundwater volume

         V⁵ = 7.83.33 10³ m³

The volume of water lost is

       V_lost = V₃ + V₄ + V₅

       V_ lost = 6.40496 10⁸ + 1.783 10¹⁰ + 783.33 10³

       V_ lost = 1.8471 10¹⁰ m³

3) the change in the height of the lake

the change in volume is

      ΔV = V_ won - V_ lost

      ΔV = 7.05 10¹⁰ - 1.8471 10¹⁰

      ΔV = 5.20 10¹⁰ m³

the volume is

        v = A h

        h = V / A

        h = 5.20 10¹⁰/82100 10⁶

        h = 6.334 10⁻¹ m

        h = 633.4  mm

A large gas-turbine power plant delivers a net power output of 325 MW to an electric generator. The minimum temperature in the cycle is 300 K, and the maximum temperature is 1500 K. The minimum pressure in the cycle is 100 kPa, and the compressor pressure ratio is 12. Calculate the power output of the turbine, the back work ratio, and the thermal efficiency of the cycle. Also, determine the improved thermal efficiency if a regenerator, with an effectiveness of 85 percent, were installed in the power plant.

Answers

Answer:

A) Power output = 541.67 MW

B) Backwork ratio = 0.4

C) Improved thermal efficiency = 0.598

Explanation:

We are given;

Net power output; W'_net = 325 MW

Minimum Temperature; T1 = 300 K

Maximum Temperature; T4 = 1500 K

Compression Pressure ratio;P2/P1 = 12

From online tables, we have the following properties of air;

Specific heat capacity; C_p = 1.004 KJ/Kg

Adiabatic constant; k = 1.4

Temperature at stage 2 will be given by the formula;

T2 = T1(P2/P1)^((k - 1)/k)

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

T2 = 300(12)^((1.4 - 1)/1.4)

T2 = 610.18 K

Similarly, Temperature at stage 3 will be;

T3 = T4(P2/P1)^((k - 1)/k)

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

T3 = 750(12)^((1.4 - 1)/1.4)

T3 = 1525.45 K

Now, let's calculate the specific heat addition given by the formula;

q = C_p(T3 - T2)

q = 1.004(1525.45 - 610.18)

q = 918.93 KJ/Kg

Let's now calculate the specific net work output;

w_net = C_p[(T3 - T4) - (T2 - T1)]

w_net = 1.004[(1525.45 - 750) - (610.18 - 300)]

w_net = 467.13 KJ/Kg

A) Power output is given by;

W_T = (W'_net/W_net) × C_p(T3 - T4)

W_T = (325/467.13) × 1.004(1525.45 - 750)

W_T = 541.67 MW

B) back work ratio is;

f = (T2 - T1)/(T3 - T4)

f = (610.18 - 300)/(1525.45 - 750)

f = 0.4

C) Thermal efficiency is given by;

η = w_net/q

Since we are told that a regenerator, with an effectiveness of 85 percent, were installed in the power plant.

Thus;

η = (w_net/q)÷0.85

η = (467.13/918.94) ÷ 0.85

η = 0.598

Seawater containing 3.50 wt% salt passes through a series of 11 evaporators. Roughly equal quantities of water are vaporized in each of the 11 units and then condensed and combined to obtain a product stream of fresh water. The brine leaving each evaporator but the 11this fed to the next evaporator. The brine leaving the 11th evaporator contains 5.00 wt% salt. It is desired to produce 2 x 104 L/h of fresh water. What is the mass flow rate of concentrated brine out of the process?
______kg/h Save for Later

Answers

Answer: the mass flow rate of concentrated brine out of the process is 46,666.669 kg/hr

Explanation:

F, W and B are the fresh feed, brine and total water obtained

w = 2 x 10^4 L/h

we know that

F = W + B

we substitute

F = 2 x 10^4 + B

F = 20000 + B .................EQUA 1

solute

0.035F = 0.05B

B = 0.035F/0.05

B = 0.7F

now we substitute value of B in equation 1

F = 20000 + 0.7F

0.3F = 20000

F = 20000/0.3

F = 66666.67 kg/hr

B = 0.7F

B = 0.7 * F

B = 0.7 * 66666.67

B = 46,666.669 kg/hr

the mass flow rate of concentrated brine out of the process is 46,666.669 kg/hr

A full-wave bridge-rectifier circuit with a 1-k load operates from a 120-V (rms) 60-Hz household supply through a 12-to-1 step-down transformer having a single secondary winding. It uses four diodes, each of which can be modeled to have a 0.7-V drop for any current. What is the peak value of the rectified voltage across the load? For what fraction of a cycle does each diode conduct? What is the average voltage across the load? What is the average current through the load?

Answers

Answer:

The average current will be "10.12 mA".

Explanation:

In the transformer:

⇒  [tex]\frac{V1}{V2}=\frac{N1}{N2}[/tex]

where,

V1 = 120

N2 = 1

N1 = 10

So that,

⇒  [tex]V2=V1\times \frac{N2}{N1}[/tex]

On putting the values,

         [tex]=120\times \frac{1}{10}[/tex]

         [tex]=12V \ rms[/tex]

The full wave rectifier would conducts during positive and negative half.

⇒  [tex]Vmax=12-0.7[/tex]

               [tex]=11.3V \ rms[/tex]

⇒  [tex]Vpeak=11.3\sqrt{2}[/tex]

               [tex]=15.9V[/tex]

⇒  [tex]Vaverage=2Vmax \ \pi[/tex]

                     [tex]=10.12 \ V[/tex]

The amount conducted by each diode is 50%.

⇒  [tex]Iaverage=\frac{Vaverage}{R}[/tex]

                    [tex]=\frac{10.12}{1}[/tex]

                    [tex]=10.12 \ mA[/tex]

A lake with a surface area of 525 acres was monitored over a period of time. During onemonth period the inflow was 30 cfs (ie. ft3 /sec), the outflow was 27 cfs, and a 1.5 in seepage loss was measured. During the same month, the total precipitation was 4.25 inches. Evaporation loss was estimated as 6 inches. Estimate the storage change for this lake during the month.

Answers

Answer:

The storage of the lake has increased in [tex]4.58\times 10^{6}[/tex] cubic feet during the month.

Explanation:

We must estimate the monthly storage change of the lake by considering inflows, outflows, seepage and evaporation losses and precipitation. That is:

[tex]\Delta V_{storage} = V_{inflow} -V_{outflow}-V_{seepage}-V_{evaporation}+V_{precipitation}[/tex]

Where [tex]\Delta V_{storage}[/tex] is the monthly storage change of the lake, measured in cubic feet.

Monthly inflow

[tex]V_{inflow} = \left(30\,\frac{ft^{3}}{s} \right)\cdot \left(3600\,\frac{s}{h} \right)\cdot \left(24\,\frac{h}{day} \right)\cdot (30\,days)[/tex]

[tex]V_{inflow} = 77.76\times 10^{6}\,ft^{3}[/tex]

Monthly outflow

[tex]V_{outflow} = \left(27\,\frac{ft^{3}}{s} \right)\cdot \left(3600\,\frac{s}{h} \right)\cdot \left(24\,\frac{h}{day} \right)\cdot (30\,days)[/tex]

[tex]V_{outflow} = 66.98\times 10^{6}\,ft^{3}[/tex]

Seepage losses

[tex]V_{seepage} = s_{seepage}\cdot A_{lake}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]s_{seepage}[/tex] - Seepage length loss, measured in feet.

[tex]A_{lake}[/tex] - Surface area of the lake, measured in square feet.

If we know that [tex]s_{seepage} = 1.5\,in[/tex] and [tex]A_{lake} = 525\,acres[/tex], then:

[tex]V_{seepage} = (1.5\,in)\cdot \left(\frac{1}{12}\,\frac{ft}{in} \right)\cdot (525\,acres)\cdot \left(43560\,\frac{ft^{2}}{acre} \right)[/tex]

[tex]V_{seepage} = 2.86\times 10^{6}\,ft^{3}[/tex]

Evaporation losses

[tex]V_{evaporation} = s_{evaporation}\cdot A_{lake}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]s_{evaporation}[/tex] - Evaporation length loss, measured in feet.

[tex]A_{lake}[/tex] - Surface area of the lake, measured in square feet.

If we know that [tex]s_{evaporation} = 6\,in[/tex] and [tex]A_{lake} = 525\,acres[/tex], then:

[tex]V_{evaporation} = (6\,in)\cdot \left(\frac{1}{12}\,\frac{ft}{in} \right)\cdot (525\,acres)\cdot \left(43560\,\frac{ft^{2}}{acre} \right)[/tex]

[tex]V_{evaporation} = 11.44\times 10^{6}\,ft^{3}[/tex]

Precipitation

[tex]V_{precipitation} = s_{precipitation}\cdot A_{lake}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]s_{precipitation}[/tex] - Precipitation length gain, measured in feet.

[tex]A_{lake}[/tex] - Surface area of the lake, measured in square feet.

If we know that [tex]s_{precipitation} = 4.25\,in[/tex] and [tex]A_{lake} = 525\,acres[/tex], then:

[tex]V_{precipitation} = (4.25\,in)\cdot \left(\frac{1}{12}\,\frac{ft}{in} \right)\cdot (525\,acres)\cdot \left(43560\,\frac{ft^{2}}{acre} \right)[/tex]

[tex]V_{precipitation} = 8.10\times 10^{6}\,ft^{3}[/tex]

Finally, we estimate the storage change of the lake during the month:

[tex]\Delta V_{storage} = 77.76\times 10^{6}\,ft^{3}-66.98\times 10^{6}\,ft^{3}-2.86\times 10^{6}\,ft^{3}-11.44\times 10^{6}\,ft^{3}+8.10\times 10^{6}\,ft^{3}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta V_{storage} = 4.58\times 10^{6}\,ft^{3}[/tex]

The storage of the lake has increased in [tex]4.58\times 10^{6}[/tex] cubic feet during the month.

The volume of water gained and the loss of water through flow,

seepage, precipitation and evaporation gives the storage change.

Response:

The storage change for the lake in a month is 1,582,823.123 ft.³

How can the given information be used to calculate the storage change?

Given parameters:

Area of the lake = 525 acres

Inflow = 30 ft.³/s

Outflow = 27 ft.³/s

Seepage loss = 1.5 in. = 0.125 ft.

Total precipitation = 4.25 inches

Evaporator loss = 6 inches

Number of seconds in a month is found as follows;

[tex]30 \ days/month \times \dfrac{24 \ hours }{day} \times \dfrac{60 \, minutes}{Hour} \times \dfrac{60 \, seconds}{Minute} = 2592000 \, seconds[/tex]

Number of seconds in a month = 2592000 s.

Volume change due to flow, [tex]V_{fl}[/tex] = (30 ft.³/s - 27 ft.³/s) × 2592000 s = 7776000 ft.³

1 acre = 43560 ft.²

Therefore;

525 acres = 525 × 43560 ft.² =  2.2869 × 10⁷ ft.²

Volume of water in seepage loss, [tex]V_s[/tex] = 0.125 ft. × 2.2869 × 10⁷ ft.² = 2,858,625 ft.³

Volume gained due to precipitation, [tex]V_p[/tex] = 0.354167 ft. × 2.2869 × 10⁷ ft.² = 8,099,445.123 ft.³

Volume evaporation loss, [tex]V_e[/tex] = 0.5 ft. × 2.2869 × 10⁷ ft.² = 11,434,500 ft.³

[tex]Storage \, change \, \Delta V = \mathbf{V_{fl} - V_s + V_p - V_e}[/tex]

Which gives;

ΔV = 7776000 - 2858625 + 8099445.123 - 11434500 = 1582823.123

The storage change, ΔV = 1,582,823.123 ft.³

When we drive our car at 90 feet per second​ [ft/s], we measure an aerodynamic force​ (called drag) of 59 ​pounds-force ​[lbf​] that opposes the motion of the car. How much horsepower​ [hp] is required to overcome this​ drag?

Answers

Answer:

P = 9.65 hp

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of a car, v = 90 ft/s

Force that opposes the motion of the car, F = 59 pounds-force

90 ft/s = 27.432 m/s

1 pound-force = 4.448 N

59 pounds-force = 262.445 N

Power required is given by :

[tex]P=F\times v\\\\P=262.445\ N\times 27.432\ m/s\\\\P=7199.391\ W[/tex]

Since, 1 hp = 745.7

7199.391 W = 9.65 hp

So, 9.65 hp of power is required to overcome the drag.
