A maritime research vessel may not use more than 65% of its 8000kW power plant when cruising at 40km/h, when travelling without a towed sonar unit the ship uses 57% of total available power. The towed sonar unit is usually towed 20m behind and 10m below the ship. The sonar unit's shape is presented below, a round cylindrical body with a round leading end and a blunt trailing end. The arrow is indicative of the direction of travel. Note the unit travels horizontally (level) behind and below the ship. Calculate the maximum size (volume) of the sonar unit that may be pulled along behind the vessel, whilst adhering to the stated operational limitations.

Question 1
A maritime research vessel may not use more than 65% of its 8000kW power plant when cruising
at 40km/h, when travelling without a towed sonar unit the ship uses 57% of total available power.
The towed sonar unit is usually towed 20m behind and 10m below the ship. The sonar unit's shape
is presented below, a round cylindrical body with a round leading end and a blunt trailing end. The
arrow is indicative of the direction of travel. Note the unit travels horizontally (level) behind and
below the ship.
Calculate the maximum size (volume) of the sonar unit that may be pulled along behind the
vessel, whilst adhering to the stated operational limitations.
