Dvinal [7]

Answer:

4523.17365 Pa

Explanation:

m = Mass of plane = 77000 kg

F = Force = Weight = mg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

A = Total area of wings = 167 m²

The pressure difference would be

\Delta P=\dfrac{F}{A}\\\Rightarrow \Delta P=\dfrac{77000\times 9.81}{167}\\\Rightarrow \Delta P=4523.17365\ Pa

The pressure difference required to keep the plane aloft is 4523.17365 Pa
