In 1923, the United States Army (there was no U.S. Air Force at that time) set a record for in-flight refueling of airplanes. Us
ing two refueling planes, an Airco DH-4B biplane was able to remain in flight for 37 hours. During the flight, the refueling planes were able to air-transfer a total of 687 gallons of fuel to the plane in 9 refueling transfers. Assume that the refueling nozzle had a diameter of 1.45 inches and each refueling took 2.31 minutes to perform. Calculate the velocity of the fuel through the nozzle. Assume that the fuel filled the entire cross-sectional area of the nozzle..

Explanation:
Hello!
To solve this problem we are going to use the ideal gass law
PV = nRT
Where n (number of moles) and R are constants (in the present case)
Therefore, we can relate to thermodynamic states with their respective pressure, volume and temperature.
--- (*)
Our initial state is:
P1 = 754 torr
V1 = 3.1 L
T1 = 294 K
If we consider the final state at which the ballon will explode, then:
P2 = Pmax
V2 = Vmax
T2 = 273 K
We also know that the maximum surface area is: 1257 cm^2
If we consider a spherical ballon, we can obtain the maximum radius:
Rmax = 10.001 cm
Therefore, the max volume will be:
Vmax = 4 190.05 cm^3 = 4.19 L
Now, from (*)
Therefore:
Pmax= P1 * (0.687)
That is:
Pmax = 518 Torr
Work done by a given force is given by
here on sled two forces will do work
1. Applied force by Max
2. Frictional force due to ground
Now by force diagram of sled we can see the angle of force and displacement
work done by Max =
Now similarly work done by frictional force
Now total work done on sled
