Question:

A marine location marker is a smoke-producing device usually dropped from an airplane and used to mark a reference point in the ocean. One is being tested in a wind tunnel to determine the drag force when it is carried by an airplane at a velocity of \(200 \mathrm{mph}\). The marker is a cylinder with flat ends, has a diameter of 12 in., and is 48 in. long. Calculate the drag force on the marker in \(10{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\) air if the air flow is parallel to the cylinder's axis.
