An Airbus A380-800 passanger airplane is cruising at constant altitude on a straight line with a constant speed. The total surface area of the two wings is 395 m^2. The average speed of the air just below the wings is 248 m/s, and it is 276 m/s just above the surface of the wings. What is the mass of the airplane? The average density of the air around the airplane is ρair = 1.29 kg/m^3.
Using Bernoulli's Principle:
Pu + 0.5*rho*Vu^2 = Pl + 0.5*rho*Vl^2
Pl - Pu = 0.5*rho*(Vu^2 - Vl^2)
Also,
Pl - Pu = F/A = mg/A
mg/A = 0.5*rho*(Vu^2 - Vl^2)
m = A*0.5*rho*(Vu^2 - Vl^2)/g
Using given Values:
m = 395*0.5*1.29*(276^2 - 248^2)/9.81
m = 381045.75 Kg

At an altitude of 11,000 m (a typical cruising altitude for a jet airliner), the air temperature is -52.5 ∘C and the air density is 0.356 kg/m3. The molar mass of air is 28.8 g/mol. What is the pressure of the atmosphere at that altitude? (Note: The temperature at this altitude is not the same as at the surface of the earth, so the equation P=P0exp(−MgyRT) doesn't apply.)
