A prototype jet-powered UAV has a wing planform with S = 60 ft2 and b = 20 ft. and an Oswald efficiency of e = 0.82. The aircraft has CD,0= 0.04. The weight is 2,000 lb. For this aircraft, determine the following:
a. Minimum thrust required at sea level for steady level flight.
b. Velocity of minimum thrust required for the conditions in (a).
c. The induced drag for the conditions in (a).
d. If Vmax at sea level is 550 fps, what is the thrust available in lb?
e. Given the thrust available is produced by a single turbojet engine with a cross-sectional inlet area of Ain= 2.5 ft2, determine the exit velocity from the engine and the propulsion efficiency assuming the exit pressure is atmospheric..
An older Rolls Royce Ghost is traveling at 25 mph on a roadway with good, dry pavement.The car has a C D = 0.32, 35 ft 2 of frontal area, and weighs 5,445 lb. The wheelbase is 129.7 inand the center of gravity is 25 in above the pavement and 60 in behind the front axle. Thevehicle is traveling on pavement at sea level. The engine produces a hefty 620 ft-lb of torqueand is in a gear of the transmission that provides a gear reduction of 5 to 1 with a 22 in wheelradius and 95% drivetrain mechanical efficiency. If the limo driver needs to accelerate hard inthe Ghost to avoid an accident, what would the acceleration be since it is a rear-wheel drive car?
