(Problem 4.102 on main book) The Canadair CL-215T amphibious aircraft is specially designed to fight fires. It is the only production aircraft that can scoop water, at up to 6120 gallons in 12 seconds, from any lake, river, or ocean. Determine the added thrust required during water scooping, as a function of aircraft speed, for a reasonable range of speeds.

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.

Hydraulic fluid with a sg. of 0.78 is flowing through a 1.5 in. i. d. pipe at 58 gal/min. the fluid has an absolute viscosity of 11.8 x 105 lbf-sec/ft2. is the flow laminar, turbulent or within the critical range? give both a numerical reynolds number and a term answer.

What are the major differences between injection molding and extrusion?
