In the static test of a jet engine and exhaust nozzle assembly, air is sucked into the engine at the rate of 30 kg/s and fuel is burned at the rate of 1.6 kg/s. The flow area, static pressure, and axial-flow velocity for the three sections shown are as follows:

Determine the tension T in the diagonal member of the supporting test stand and calculate the force F exerted on the nozzle flange at B by the bolts and gasket to hold the nozzle to the engine housing.
