Question: A power lawn mower hovers very close over the ground. This is done by drawing air in at a speed of m/s through and intake

A power lawn mower hovers very close over the ground. This is done by drawing air in at a speed of m/s through and intake unit A, which has a cross-sectional area of AA = 0.25m2, and then discharging it at the ground, B, where the cross-sectional area is AB = 0.35 m2. If air at A is subjected only to atmospheric pressure, determine the air pressure which the lawn mower exerts on the ground when the weight of the mower is freely supported and no load is placed on the handle, The mower has a mass of 15 kg with center of mass at G. Assume that air has a constant density of Pn = 1.22 kg./m3.
