A plane is in level fight at constant speed and each of its two wings has an area of `25 m^2`. If the speed of the air is `180 km//h` over the lower wing and `234 km//h` over the upper wing surface, determine the plane 's mass.(Take air density to be 1kg `m^-3`)

Air is streaming past a horizontal aeroplane wing such that the speed of air is 120 m/s over the upper surface and 90 m/s at the lower surface, with respect to the plane. If the density of air is 1.3kg/ m^(3) , find the difference in pressure between the top and bottom of the wing. If the wing is 10m long and has an average width of 2m, calculate the gross lift of the wing.

In a test experiment on a model aeroplane in a wind tunnel, the flow speeds on the upper and lower surface of the wing are 70 ms^-1 and 63 ms^-1 respectively. What is the lift on the wing if its area is 2.5 m^2 ? Take the density of air to be 1.3 kg m^-3 .

A fully loaded boeing aircraft has a mass of 3.3 times 10^5 Kg . Its total wing area is 500 m^2 . It is in level flight with a speed of 960 km//h (a) Estimate the pressure difference between the lower and upper surfaces of the wings (b) Estimate the fractional increase in the speed of the air on the surface of the wing relative to the lower surface.[ The density of air is p= 1.2 kg m^-3 ]
