The wing loading on an airplane is defined as the aircraft weight divided by the wing area. An airplane is cruising with a wing loading of 2500 Pa. The lift coefficient and drag coefficient are 0.30 and 0.06, respectively. Calculate the drag force if the wing planform area is 12 m2. Assume that the air density is unknown and not given.
Figure 2 shows a 0.25 kg kite with an area of 0.65 m² flies in a 25 km/h wind such that the weightless string makes an angle of 40° relative to the horizontal. The density of air is 1.22 kg/m3. If the pull on the string is 7 N, determine the lift and drag coefficient based on the kite area. Figure 2

The drag polar for the ASW 27B high performance sailplane is: CD = 0.01 +0.02CL2. What is its maximum lift-to-drag (L/D) ratio? 18 25 35 70
3) An advertising sign mounted on the roof of a car is 33 inches tall, 15 inches wide and 54 inches long (airflow direction). The underside of the sign is flush with the top surface of the roof. Take air properties to be: p = 0.075 lbm/ft' and u= 1.22x10 lbm/ft.sec. Used a pressure drag coefficient of 1.2 for the advertisement sign. Calculate the total drag on the sign and the power required to overcome its effect if the car is travelling at a constant speed of a) 12 mph and b) 45 mph. Note: Provide a schematic diagram (sketch) of the problem configuration (if applicable). Every numerical calculation must be preceded by the appropriate equation. Do not forget units & dimensions during your calculations.
Qustion. An aircraft is flying in level flight at a speed of 200 km/h through air (density, p = 1.2 kg/m³, and viscosity, μ = 1.6 x 10-5 N-s/m²). The lift coefficient at this speed is 0.4 and the drag coefficient is 0.0065. The mass of the aircraft is 800 kg. The effective lift area of the aircraft NOTE= Do not give wrong answer I will dislike , If not sure skip it
Kindly give me both right solutions with clear calculations The drag polar of a glider is given by CD=0.01+0.022CL2 . If it is launched from a height of 400m in still air. Please determine:(a) the maximum lift to drag ratio ??;(b) the greatest possible ground distance it can cover.
The car shown in the figure below moves at a constant speed on a highway and has a drag coefficient Cpc of 0.32 with the windows and roof closed. What is the percent increase of horsepower needed to maintain the speed if the windows and roof are then opened? With the windows and roof open, the drag coefficient increases to Cpo = 0.43. Assume the frontal area remains the same. Windows and roof closed: CD=CDc Windows open; roof open: C₂=CDo
