Question: A 2 0 m / s wind ( viscosity is 1 . 8 x 1 0 - 5 Pa - s , density is 1

A 20 m/s wind (viscosity is 1.8 x10-5 Pa-s, density is 1.22 kg/m 3
) blows against a 20 m
tall flag pool that is 0.12 m in diameter.
(a) Determine the anchoring moment at the base of the pole (no flag).[Answer: 70__ N-m]
(b) Determine the anchoring moment at the base of the pole if a 2 m by 2.5 flag is attached to
the top of the pole. [Answer: 89__ N-m]
