[1.23] Calculate the force necessary to accelerate a 20,000-lbm rocket vertically upward at a rate
of 100 ft/sec². Assume g = 32.2 ft/sec².
A 118-mm-diameter pipe enlarges to a 149-mm-diameter pipe. At section 1 of the smaller pipe, the density of gas in steady flow is 264.656 kg/m3, and the velocity is 23 m/s; at section 2 of the larger pipe, the velocity is 15 m/s. Find the unit weight (in kN/m3) of the gas at section 2. Round off to three decimal places.
