The wing is to be straight and is to have the same airfoil section all the way along the span; this 2D section has a lift curve slope of 5.9 per radian and a zero-lift angle of attack of -1.2°. It can be assumed that the span efficiency factor will be equal to 0.9. It is proposed that the aircraft will be cruising at Mach 0.57 at an 5° angle of attack.a) Calculate the 3D lift coefficient if: a. The wing area is 170m2 and the wingspan is 40m. b. The wing area is 170m2 and the wingspan is 25m. b) What is the key disadvantage of a low aspect ratio wing for subsonic aircraft?arrow_forwardJake bungee jumps from a hot air balloon 55 m above the ground.

- Ed, Edd and Eddy love to play on a seesaw. It consists of a 1-kg board with a length of 8 meters. One day, the other end broke down. They had to cut it by a meter and maintain the pin support in its original position. Then, they tried the seesaw altogether. Ed (m = 55kg) sat on one side about 3m from the pin while Edd (m = 40kg) and Eddy (m = 40kg) on the other side. If Edd was about 3m as well from the pin, calculate the following: The manitude of the reaction force (N) exerted by the pin support on the board. Assume Eddy is in between Ed and Edd.

Three students of equal mass, gently lower themselves into the basket and the spring stretches 1.0m for each one.

A block of mass 1 kg is pulled along the rail from P to Q with a force of 18 N, which is always parallel to line PQ (see figure). Assuming no frictional losses, the kinetic energy of the block when it reaches Q is (n × 10) J. The value of n is (take acceleration due to gravity = 10 ms -2):3 -3m- 4m 04 90°arrow_forward
