Question Number 140869 by jlewis last updated on 13/May/21
the velocities of air particles above and below the wing of an aircraft speeding down the runway at a given instant are 210m/s and 200m/s respectively.If the density of air is 1.2kg/m^3 ,what is the pressure difference between the upper and lower surface of the wing?

You might have come across the concept found in Benouli′s equation P + (1/2)ρv^2 = constant. which tells us that the relationship between pressure, density and speed is P = (1/2)ρv^2 so P_(above) = (1/2)ρv_(above) ^2 = (1/2)(1.2)(210)^2 = 26,460 Pa P_(below) = (1/2)ρv_(below) ^2 = (1/2)(1.2)(200)^2 = 24,000 Pa pressure difference = ΔP = P_(above) −P_(below) = 26,460 − 24000= 2,460 Pa
