1. For the sample airfoil data given previously on page 13 of this presentation, find the lift, drag, and moment per unit length, if the chord is 6 ft ., the incoming flow is at std. sea level conditions and \(100\mathrm{ft}/\mathrm{s}\), and the AOA is 5 deg .
2. In terms of lift to drag ratio, what is the best lift coefficient and angle of attack to operate this airfoil at? What is the best L/D?
3. What is the stall speed at sea level of an airplane that weights \(10,000\mathrm{lbs}\)., has a wing area of 300 sq.ft., and a maximum lift coefficient of 1.4? What is the stall speed if flaps that double CLmax are applied?
4. An airplane is flying at 108 mph at sea level. It weighs \(2,000\mathrm{lbs}\), has a wing span of 30 ft ., and a wing area of \(160\mathrm{sq}.\mathrm{ft}\). If, the Oswald's efficiency is 0.75, what is the induced drag in pounds
