An air-plane has an effective wing surface area of 12.0 m² that is generating the lift force. In level flight the air speed over the top of the wings is 65.5 m/s, while the air speed beneath the wings is 39.0 m/s. What is the weight of the plane?(The density of air is 1.29 kg/m³)
For an airplane in flight, the average speed of the air relative to the plane is 317 m/s below the wings and 348 m/s above the wings. The bottom of each wing has a surface area of 29.9 m2. Calculate the lift, which is the net upward force of air on the plane.
For an airplane in flight, the average speed of the air relative to the plane is 306 m/s below the wings and 336 m/s above the wings (see the figure below). The bottom of each wing has a surface area of 29.7 m2. Calculate the lift, which is the net upward force of air on the plane.
For an airplane in flight, the average speed of the air relative to the plane is 320 m/s below the wings and 352 m/s above the wings (see the figure below). The bottom of each wing has a surface area of 30.9 m2. Calculate the lift, which is the net upward force of air on the plane.
A small jet airplane has a total wing area of 62.5 m2 and a mass of 7.03 104 kg. (a) If this jet is in horizontal flight, determine the pressure difference between the lower and upper surfaces of the wings. (b) When the speed of air traveling over the wing is 237 m/s, determine the speed of air under the wing. Use 1.29 kg/m3 as the density of air.
An airplane wing generates lift due to a difference in air speed above and below the wing. If the wings are both at the same height, what term is the same on both sides of the Bernoulli equation? Calculate the change in pressure (P-bottom - P_top) a wing experiences if the air moves at 245 m/s above the wing and 222m/s below the wing. The density of air is 1.29kg/m^3. Calculate the lift force the plane experiences if it has...
Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. An airplane has wings, each with area 3.95 m2, designed so that air flows over the top of the wing at 249 m/s and underneath the wing at 225 m/s. Find the mass of the airplane such that the lift on the plane will support its weight, assuming the force from the pressure difference across the wings is directed straight upwards.

PRACTICE IT Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. An airplane has wings, each with area 4.05 m2, designed so that air flows over the top of the wing at 249 m/s and underneath the wing at 226 m/s. Find the mass of the airplane such that the lift on the plane will support its weight, assuming the force from the pressure difference across the wings is directed straight upwards. Your response differs from the correct...
What is the net upward force on an airplane wing of area 27.8 m2 if the speed of air flow is 247 m/s across the top of the wing and 222 m/s across the bottom? (The density of air where the airplane flies is rho_air = 1.13 kg/m^3.)
