Question:

As is discussed in Section 9.3, the drag on a rough golf ball may be less than that on an equal-sized smooth ball. Does it follow that a \(10-\mathrm{m}\)-diameter spherical water tank resting on a \(20-\mathrm{m}\)-tall support should have a rough surface so as to reduce the moment needed at the base of the support when a wind blows? Explain.
