Resistive force is proportional to the square of the bucket

Reference no: EM131150984

A fire helicopter carries a 620-kg bucket at the end of a cable 20.0 m long as in Figure P6.36. As the helicopter flies to a fire at a constant speed of 40.0 m/s, the cable makes an angle of 40.0° with respect to the vertical. The bucket presents a cross-sectional area of 3.80 m2 in a plane perpendicular to the air moving past it. Determine the drag coefficient assuming that the resistive force is proportional to the square of the bucket's speed.
