Question:

The propeller on a swamp boat produces a slipstream 3 ft in diameter with a velocity relative to the boat of 100 ft/s. If the air temperature is 80°F, what is the propulsive force when the boat is not moving and also when its forward speed is 30 ft/s?

Assume that the pressure, except in the immediate vicinity of the propeller, is atmospheric.
