Example: -1.5 ft It is desired to determine the drag force at a given speed on a prototype sailboat hull. A model is placed in a test channel and three cables are used to align its bow on the channel centerline. For a given speed, the tension is 40 lb in cable AB and 60 lb in cable AE. 4 ft Flow Determine the drag force exerted on the hull and the tension in cable AC.
