Answer:
30,000 pounds of thrust equivalent to 54.54 horsepower.
Explanation:
- Unit pound of thrust is defined as the total quantity of thrust that it would bear to keep an unit pound element stationary against the gravity on Earth.
- It is represented by Newtons in the metric system of measurement.
- One horsepower is equivalent to total of 550 foot-pounds per second.
So, one pound of thrust = [tex]\frac{1}{550}[/tex] horsepower.
then, 30,000 pound of thrust = [tex]\frac{30000}{550}[/tex] horsepower.
30,000 pound of thrust = 54.54 horsepower.
- 30,000 pound of thrust is calculated as 54.54 horsepower.
