Ingrid Delgado · Answer 1

The additive drag at flight condition will be found by the following equation

Area = A1 = 6m2

Da = Additive drag

Cda = Additive drag coefficient

P = prassure at altitude of 12Km

Po = Prassure at sea level

/gamma = Ratio of specific heat capacity

The formula of additive drag is given below

D = Cda q A

q = Dynamic prassure, A = cross sectional area

q = (/gamma / 2) P0 M02

D = Cda (/gamma/2) po Mo2 A

Cda=0.32

/gamma=1.4

M=0.8

p0 = 101325pa

D = 0.32 (1.4/2) (101325pa) (0.6) 2 6

D = 49025N

Explanation:

The additive drag at the flight conditions will be D = 49025N
