Answer:

37,737 hp

Explanation:

θ = tan-1(.07) = 4.004172941 deg.

F(rr) = 4076451 lbf * 0.015 * cos(4.004172941) = 60997.50 lbf

F(w) = 4076451 lbf * sin(4.004172941) = 284655.02 lbf

Fsum = 6433 + 60997.5 + 284655.02 = 352085.82 lbf

P = 352085.82 lbf * 59 ft/s = 20773063.27 ft*lbf/s

HP = (20773063.27 ft*lbf/s) * (1 hp / 550 ft*lbf/s) = 37,769.206 hp <> 37,737 hp
