The weight of the North American P-51 Mustang airplane is 10,100 lb and its wing platform area is 233 ft2 . Calculate the wing l

oading (airplane weight per wing area) in both English engineering and SI units. Also, express the wing loading in terms of the nonconsistent (but commonly used) unit kgf/m2 (kilogram-force per square meter).

Answer

given,

weight of airplane,W = 10,100 lb

Wing area,A = 233 ft²

now,

Wing Loading Calculation in English engineering

        = \dfrac{W}{A}

        = \dfrac{10,100}{233}

        = 43.35 lb/ft²

Wing Loading in SI unit

        = 43.35\times \dfrac{4.448\ N}{1\ lb}\times (\dfrac{1\ ft}{0.3048})^2

        = 2075.51\ N/m^2

Wing loading in kgf/m²

      = \dfrac{2075.51}{9.81}

      = 211.57 kgf/m²

A 26-cm-long wire with a linear density of 20 g/m passes across the open end of an 86-cm-long open-closed tube of air. If the wi

Answer: T = 472.71 N

Explanation: The wire vibrates thus making sound waves in the tube.

The frequency of sound wave on the string equals frequency of sound wave in the tube.

L= Length of wire = 26cm = 0.26m

u=linear density of wire = 20g/m = 0.02kg/m

Length of open close tube = 86cm = 0.86m

Sound waves in the tube are generated at the second vibrational mode, hence the relationship between the length of air and and wavelength is given as

L = 3λ/4

0.86 = 3λ/4

3λ = 4 * 0.86

3λ = 3.44

λ = 3.44/3 = 1.15m.

Speed of sound in the tube = 340 m/s

Hence to get frequency of sound, we use the formulae below.

v = fλ

340 = f * 1.15

f = 340/ 1.15

f = 295.65Hz.

f = 295.65 = frequency of sound wave in pipe = frequency of sound wave in string.

The string vibrated at it fundamental frequency hence the relationship the length of string and wavelength is given as

L = λ/2

0.26 = λ/2

λ = 0.52m

The speed of sound in string is given as v = fλ

Where λ = 0.52m f = 295.65 Hz

v = 295.65 * 0.52

v = 153.738 m/s.

The velocity of sound in the string is related to tension, linear density and tension is given below as

v = √(T/u)

153.738 = √T/ 0.02

By squaring both sides

153.738² = T / 0.02

T = 153.738² * 0.02

T = 23,635.372 * 0.02

T= 472.71 N
