1. A sign is exposed to a 15 mph wind on a standard day. You may neglect the "legs" of the sign in all cases. Estimate the drag on the sign if (a) the sign is aligned lengthwise to the wind. (b) the sign is crosswise to the wind (wind perpendicular to the face of the sign). 3 m wind (part a) Tempe ASU Next Exit wind (part b) 1m 1m Configuration for part a. Configuration for part b. 1.

An aeroplane has a rectangular planform wing with a span of 12 m and a chord of 2 m. The aircraft is flying at cruising speed of 62 m/s at an altitude of 3,200 m. Assume that the skin-friction drag on the wing can be approximated by the drag on a flat plate of the same dimensions at 0° incidence. Calculate the skin-friction drag and the maximum boundary layer thickness assuming (i) a completely laminar flow, and (ii) a completely turbulent flow. Assume μ = 1.63.10-5 N s/m², p = 0.89 kg/m³. Then, calculate the skin-friction drag accounting for transition at Recr= 5.105. What would the drag benefit be if transition was delayed to a Reynolds number of 106? What reduction in a propeller engine power would this imply in the cruise condition, assuming a propeller efficiency of 0.88?

7. A 2700-lb car is traveling @ sea level at a constant speed. Its engine is running at 4500 rev/min. and is producing 175 ft-lb of torque. It has a drivetrain efficiency of 90%, a drive axle slippage of 2%, 15-inch-radius wheels, and an overall gear reduction ratio of 3 to 1. If the car's frontal area is 21.5 ft, what is its drag coefficient?
