What should be the aspect ratio (AR) of the prop aircraft if it is designed to work with maximum loiter wing loading of 32, CD0 = 0.06, dynamic pressure of 20 unit and Oswald efficiency as 0.6.

9.65

8.54

7.65

7.54

Correct Answer : Option (B) : 7.54

Explaination :

An aircraft is to be designed to have max lift coefficient as 2.8 and at q=10Pa. If maximum load factor n=5 then, what will be the stall speed?

1.80m/s

1.80mph

2.80mph

2.80m/s

Correct Answer : Option (A) : 1.80m/s

Explanation :

An aircraft has lift to drag ratio during cruise as 2.5 and load factor as 1.2. Which value of thrust loading should be selected?

0.28

0.38

0.48

0.58

Correct Answer : Option (C) : 0.48

Explanation : Given, load factor n=1.2, lift to drag L/D = 2.5
Now, n at cruise is given by, n = (T/W)*(L/D).
Hence, T/w is given as,
T/W = n / (L/D) = 1.2/2.5 = 0.48.
