An aircraft is flying at an altitude of 2 km at 200 m/s. The fuselage has a cylindrical shape with an average diameter of 4 m and a length of 32 m. What is the total drag over the fuselage (total of form and skin friction drag)? Ignore the nose cone and tail slope. Assume a flat plate drag coefficient of 1.1 and transitional Reynolds number is 5.5E+5.

A group of researchers from UMP conducted a project collaboration with an aircraft company to develop a small aircraft. The aircraft is designed to carry up to 2800 kg of total mass. The wing area of the aircraft is 30 m2. During takeoff, the lift coefficient of the aircraft is 0.45. Meanwhile during cruising, the drag coefficient of the aircraft is 0.035. i. Analyze the takeoff speed of the aircraft at standard atmospheric conditions ( = 1.225 kg/m3 )

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.
