The drag force F on a boat varies jointly with the wet surface area A of the boat and the square of the speed s of the boat. A boat with a wet surface area of 83 ft 2 traveling at 20 mph experiences a drag force of 996 N . Find the wet surface area of a boat traveling 18 mph and experiencing a drag force of 1215 N .

Wet surfaces areaA=+25.3ft^2

Explanation:

Using F= K×A× S^2

Where F= drag force

A= surface area

S= speed

Given : F=996N S=20mph A= 83ft^2

K = F/AS^2=996/(83×20^2)

K= 996/33200 = 0.03

1215= (0.03)× A × 18^2

1215=9.7A

A=1215/9.7=125.3ft^2

the reason is because the moon has some form of gravity, and that gravity pulls the ocean tides.

total distance travelled = 60 miles

total time taken =1.5 hours

average speed = total distance / total time

60 / 1.5

= 40

therefore, average speed = 40 m/h
