If so instructed by your teacher, print out a worksheet page for these problems. |
For each of the wing planforms below:
a) Set the following conditions:
Airspeed = 100 mph
Altitude = 0 feet
Angle = 0 degrees
Thickness = 12.5%
Camber = 0
Area = 1.0 sq ft
b) Assume and enter the following for all wing planforms:
Airspeed = 100 mph
Altitude = 2000 feet
Angle = 2 degrees
Thickness = 1.25%
Camber = 0
c) Enter the areas you determined for each aircraft (both wings).
{Hint: Lift and Area are directly proportional. If the area is over 1000 sq. ft., then divide it by 10 and enter that number. When you get the lift, multiply it by 10 to get the real value!}
