An object of mass (m), with cross-sectional area equal to half the size of the chute, falls

Question:

An object of mass \(m\), with cross-sectional area equal to half the size of the chute, falls down a mail chute. The motion is steady. The wake area is \(\frac{3}{4}\) the size of the chute at its maximum area. Use the assumption of constant pressure in the wake. Apply the continuity, Bernoulli, and momentum equations to develop an expression for terminal speed of the object in terms of its mass and other quantities.
