This snowplow clears a swath of snow (SG = 0.20) that is 4 in. deep (d = 4 in.) and 2 ft wide (B = 2 ft). The snow leaves the blade in the direction indicated in the sketches. Neglecting friction between the snow and the blade, estimate the power required for just the snow removal if the speed of the snowplow is 40 ft/s. See §6.5 for useful knowledge about moving CV’s.
