A-10A twin-jet close-support airplane is approximately rectangular with a wingspan (the length perpendicular to the flow directi

on) of 17.5 m and a chord (the length parallel to the flow direction) of 3 m. The airplane is flying at standard sea level with a velocity of 200 m/s. If the flow is considered to be completely laminar, calculate the boundary layer thickness at the trailing edge and the total skin friction drag. Assume that the wing is approximated by a flat plate. Assume incompressible flow.

Solution :

Given :

Rectangular wingspan

Length,L = 17.5 m

Chord, c = 3 m

Free stream velocity of flow, $V_{\infty}$ = 200 m/s

Given that the flow is laminar.

$Re_L=\frac{\rho V L}{\mu _{\infty}}$

      $=\frac{1.225 \times 200 \times 3}{1.789 \times 10^{-5}}$

    $= 4.10 \times 10^7$

So boundary layer thickness,

$\delta_{L} = \frac{5.2 L}{\sqrt{Re_L}}$

$\delta_{L} = \frac{5.2 \times 3}{\sqrt{4.1 \times 10^7}}$

    = 0.0024 m

The dynamic pressure, $q_{\infty} =\frac{1}{2} \rho V^2_{\infty}$

                                           $ =\frac{1}{2} \times 1.225  \times 200^2$

                                          $=2.45 \times 10^4 \ N/m^2$

The skin friction drag co-efficient is given by

$C_f = \frac{1.328}{\sqrt{Re_L}}$

     $=\frac{1.328}{\sqrt{4.1 \times 10^7}}$

     = 0.00021

$D_{skinfriction} = \frac{1}{2} \rho V^2_{\infty}S C_f$

                  $=\frac{1}{2} \times 1.225 \times 200^2 \times 17.5 \times 3 \times 0.00021$

                  = 270 N

Therefore the net drag = 270 x 2

                                      = 540 N

How many protons are there in any te atom
Andreyy89

Answer:

52

Explanation:

Tellurium is the element of the periodic table with atomic number 52.

The atomic number of a chemical element represents the number of atoms contained in the nucleus of the atom: therefore, this means that an atom of tellurium contains exactly 52 protons in its nucleus.

Tellurium is classified as a metalloid, having properties in between metals and non-metals, and it appears with a silver color.

A block moving to the right on a level surface with friction is pulled by an increasing horizontal force also directed to the ri
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

e) True  Yes both are constant

Explanation:

Let us propose the solution of the problem before reviewing the statements, we use Newton's second law

       F - fr = m a

      N- W = 0

      N = mg

The equation for the force of friction is

     fr = μ N

     F - μ mg = m a

     F = m (a- μ g)

Now let's review the claims

.a) False. Normal force and friction are constants.

.b) False. Both are constant.

.c) False. Both are constant.

d.) False

e) True  Yes both are constant
