Question: Problem 1 The NACA 6 3 - 2 1 0 airfoil had good lift and stall characteristics as well as superior low - drag characteristics

Problem 1
The NACA 63-210 airfoil had good lift and stall characteristics as well as superior low-drag characteristics over a limited range of attack angles.
A rectangular wing having a 5.0 ft span and a 1.2 ft chord utilizes this airfoil uniformly along the span.
1. Assume lift is uniformly distributed along the span and neglect induced drag. Find \(\alpha \) and D if the lift is 10 lbf for a speed of 35 mph .
2. For the same conditions calculate the induced drag.
3. Calculate the lift/total drag ratio.
