The 14Mg helicopter is hovering over a lake as the suspended
The 14-Mg helicopter is hovering over a lake as the suspended bucket collects 6 m3 of water used to extinguish a fire. The horizontal blade has a diameter of 14 m. (Figure 1) Part A Determine the power required by the engine to hold the filled water bucket over the lake. Take pa -1.23 kg/m3 Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units P-Value Units Submit Request Answer
Solution
Solution:-
Given
Mass of helicopter = 10 Mg = 10000 kg
Mass of water = 6 * 1000 = 6000 kg
Density of water = 1000 kg/m3
Total mass = 16000 kg
Total weight (T) = 16000 *9.8 = 156800 N
Area(A) = *r2 = *72 = 153.938 m2
Power (P) = (T3/(2*a * A))
Power (P) = (1568003/(2*1.23*153.94))
Power(P) = 3190.625 *103 Watt Answer
