Show that this ducted propeller system when moving forward at velocity (V_{1}) will have an efficiency given

Question:

Show that this ducted propeller system when moving forward at velocity \(V_{1}\) will have an efficiency given by \(2 V_{1} /\left(V_{4}+V_{1}\right)\). If for a specific design and point of operation, \(V_{2} / V_{1}=9 / 4\) and \(V_{4} / V_{2}=5 / 4\), what fraction of the propulsive force will be contributed

(a) by the propeller, and,

(b) by the duct?
