(5)/(196) The heavy-lift helicopter is flying at constant
speed in level flight and is transporting a uniform
pole of length l and mass \rho per unit length. The
pole is secured by a short cable at A and assumes
the constant angle \theta with the vertical due to air
pressure. If air pressure produces a force p per
unit of length of the pole normal to the pole, de-
termine an expression for the angle \theta . Prove that
the short cable must be in line with the pole.
