An airplane weighs 16,000 lbs and is flying at 5000 ft altitude and at an airspeed of 200 fps. Find (a) the potential energy, (b) the kinetic energy, and (c) the total energy. Assuming no extra drag on the airplane, if the pilot dove until the airspeed was 400 fps, what would the altitude be?

When an airplane is flying 200 mph at 5000-ft altitude in a standard atmosphere, the air velocity at a certain point on the wing is 273 mph relative to the airplane. Please provide the gage pressure (units of lb per square feet) at the location on the wing where the wind speed (from the perspective of the wind) is 273 mph. Provide your answer with two significant figures.

An airplane is flying with a constant altitude at a speed of 475 mph in a direction 25° north of west directly towards its final destination. The airplane then encounters wind blowing at a steady 30 mph in a direction 85° north of east. Yes a. Start by drawing a vector diagram for this situation. Did you draw a diagram? Great! Your diagram might look something like this: Wind New Path Original Path b. If the pilot does not correct...

A Piper Cherokee is flying at 4000 ft standard altitude at 105 mph. The wing has a rectangular planform (shape) with a span of 30 ft and a chord of 5.33 ft. Assuming that the turbulent boundary layer grows as on a smooth plate and a completely turbulent boundary layer flow, determine: (a) The boundary layer thickness at the downstream edge of the wing. (b) The total skin friction drag coefficient of the wing. (c) The total skin friction drag...
