![**Problem Statement: Marine Propeller Thrust Analysis**
1. **The thrust of a marine propeller \( F_T \)** depends on various factors: water density \( \rho \), propeller diameter \( D \), speed of advance through the water \( V \), acceleration due to gravity \( g \), the angular speed of the propeller \( \omega \), the water pressure \( p \), and the water viscosity \( \mu \). Our objective is to determine a set of dimensionless variables affecting the thrust coefficient.
In other words, we want to express the thrust coefficient \( C_T \) as:
\[
C_T = \frac{F_T}{\rho V^2 D^2} = f\left(\pi_1, \pi_2, \ldots, \pi_k\right) \tag{1}
\]
Here, \( C_T \) is a function of the dimensionless variables \( \pi_1, \pi_2, \ldots, \pi_k \).
(a) **Explanation of \( k \):**
- **What is \( k \)? Explain.**
(b) **Froude Number Calculation:**
- **Find the \( \pi \)'s on the right-hand side of equation (1) if one of them HAS to be a Froude number \( \frac{gD}{V^2} \).**
This statement aims to guide students or researchers through the process of identifying and using dimensionless variables to analyze and predict the performance of a marine propeller. The specific tasks are to explain the significance of parameter \( k \) and to identify the necessary dimensionless variables, including the Froude number.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F80624252-1099-44a7-a129-6e4dc1a5c385%2F9c018e9f-c178-4cd4-bc5e-b484251cc89f%2F98lypu_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
