Truck Chicken Problem: Fluid Mechanics Solution

[Vik_Fluid]

Homework Statement

Suppose a truck with chickens inside the truck is crossing the bridge. The truck is overweight with chickens. To solve this problem, you put the chickens outside on the walls of truck. Will the truck still experience problem in crossing the bridge or the situation will remain as it is ?

Answer in Fluid Mechanics terms .

I feel like this is a bad fluid mechanics farming pun :) If you were to arrange the appendages of the chickens with a rigid support in such a way to create lift when driving at appreciable speed over the bridge, you might be able to lesson the weight of the truck.

That is, you'd have to build a...chicken wing!

Yes, it doesn't make any difference if chicken stays inside or outside.And, chicken's can't fly :D
