Consider the example calculation provided to solve for horsepower (HP).

Would the horsepower remain the same if the thrust remained 8000 lb but the aircraft slowed to a speed of 160 kts.? Why or why not? How can the equation be altered to solve for thrust (T) if an aircraft was maintaining a constant speed with a known HP?
