2) A minivan is being driven on a straight stretch of a road in an area where the prevailing wind speeds could change. The minivan maintains a steady speed of 60 mph. Assume that the frontal area of the minivan (for drag calculation) is 25 ft? Air Properties: p=0.075 lbm/ft and u = 1.22x10-3 lbm/ft.sec. Calculate the power required to overcome pressure drag (in hp), if a) Wind conditions are calm (still air) b) There is a 15-mph headwind c) There is a 15-mph tailwind
