2. Some equations for power that occur frequently in mechanical engineering are Pow = Fv and Pow = Tw Also, recall that 1 Hp = 550ff. Here are some elementary problems to help you improve your facility with units. (a) A model airplane flies at 45 mi/hr in level flight against a drag force of 2.5 lbf. How much power is required to maintain the plane in flight? Express your answer in Hp. (b) A power screw requires a torque of 5 N m to turn at 300 rpm. How much power is required? Express your answer in the appropriate SI derived unit. (c) A generator spins at 3600 rpm. Convert that rotational speed to units of rad/s.

: You are abducted by aliens and find yourself locked in a large room on some strangeplanet. To pass the time, you decide to do some experiments using a ball-and-chain thatyou find on the floor. You make the following estimates:mBALL  7 kg ,mCHAIN  0.5 kg, and CHAIN  2 m .(a) When you hold the free end of the chain above your head and allow the ball to swinglike a pendulum, you use your wristwatch to measure the period asT  4 s. What is theacceleration due to gravity on this planet?(b) If the ball accidentally hits a wall, how long does it take for this jolt in the chain totravel up to your hand?
