What is the shape of the airfoil at the leading edge?

A)
Circular
B)
Curve
C)
Straight
D)
Semi-circular

Correct Answer :   Circular


Explanation : The shape of the airfoil at the leading edge is usually circular with a leading edge radius of approximately 0.02c. The shape of all standard NACA airfoils are generated by specifying the shape of the mean chamber line and then wrapping specified symmetric thickness distribution around the mean camber line.
