Find tension on mooring line that connects barge to dredger


A dredger is pulling sand from the bottom of a harbor and loading it onto a barge. The sand (SG =2.6) leaves the dredger pipe at 4 feet per second with a weight flow rate of 850 lbf/s at an angle of 40 degrees below the horizontal. What is the tension on the mooring line that connects the barge to the dredger during these loading conditions?
