There aircraft show above is flying at a constant speed without any pitching moment. (l.e. the plane is in equillibrium). The aircraft in the diagram above has the following properties: Datum: engine firewall Dimension a: distance from datum to center for gravity = 5.65 feet Dimension b: distance from datum to center of lift = 6.17 feet Dimension c: distance from datum to elevator force = 19.77 feet Elevator Force = 41 pounds a) What is the weight of the aircraft? Provide you answer in pounds. b) What is the magnitude of the lifting force developed by the wing? Provide your answer in pounds. c) The datum in the above diagram is moved from the engine firewall to distance of 1.5 feet aft of the firewall. With the datum at this new location, what is the magnitude of the lift force and the weight of the aircraft?
