As most of you know, commercial transport planes cruise at an altitude of approximately 10,000 m. The power required to maintain level flight depends on air drag or resistance at that altitude, which may be estimated by the relationship 1 power = Pe C„AU³ air where pr is density of air at the given altitude, C, represents the drag coefficient of the plane, A is the planform area, and U represents the cruising speed of the plane. Assume that a plane is moving at constant speed and, C, remaining constant, determine the ratio of power that would be required when the plane is cruising at 8000 m and when the plane is cruising at 11,000 m.
Problem 11.63 The drag coefficient for the car is CD = 0.26, and the projected area into the 20°C airstream is 2.5 m². At this temperature Pa = 1.202 kg/m³. (Figure 1) Figure 1 of 1 Part A Determine the power the engine must supply to maintain a constant speed of V = 160 km/h. Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. P = Submit μA Value Provide Feedback Request Answer Units ?
