Water flows around a 6-ft diameter bridge pier with a velocity of 12 ft/s. Estimate the force (per unit length) that the water exerts on the pier. Assume that the flow can be approximated as an potential fluid flow around the front half of the cylinder, but due to flow seperation, the average pressure on the rea half is constant and approximately equal to 1/2 the pressure at point A.

Amass of 1.5 kg of air at 120 kpa and 24°c is contained in a gas-tight, frictionless piston-cylinder device. the air is now compressed to a final pressure of 720 kpa. during the process, heat is transferred from the air such that the temperature inside the cylinder remains constant. calculate the boundary work input during this process.
