Question: ( 2 5 points ) Consider the airfoil obtained using the Joukowsky transformation and a generating circle of radius a and centered at

(25 points) Consider the airfoil obtained using the Joukowsky transformation and a generating circle of radius "a" and centered at (-.04,.02). Take the free-stream velocity to be unity and T equal to (1,0).
a. At an angle of attack of 10 degrees, what is the magnitude of the velocity on the upper surface of the airfoil at the chordwise location corresponding to the point on the circle given by =34?
b. What is the value of qte-U(trailing-edge velocity ratio) for this airfoil at the given operating condition?
c. If it is assumed that c=4a, what is the sectional lift coefficient at the given operating condition?
