Answer

(a) $1.42KPa$ (b) $45KN$

Work Step by Step

As $P_2+\frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2=P_1+\frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2$ This simplifies to: $P_2-P_1=\frac{1}{2}\rho(v_1^2-v_2^2)$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $P_2-P_1=\frac{1}{2}(1.29)((115)^2-(1105)^2)=1.42KPa$ (b) We can find the net upward force as follows: $\Delta F=\Delta PA$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\Delta F=(1.42\times 10^3)(32)=45KN$
