Questions to principles of flight
Hey guys,
have some problems with the following 3 questions:
1) „An aeroplane in straight and level flight at 200 kt is subjected to a sudden disturbance in speed. Aussuming the angle of attack remains constant ititially and the load factor reaches a value of 1.21:“
Answer: the speed will have increased by 20 kt.
2) „Approximately how long does it take to fly a complete circle during a horizontal steady coordinated turn with a bank angle of 45° and a TAS of 288 kt?“
Answer: 95 s
3) ) „An aeroplane in straight and level flight at a speed of 2 VS. If, at this speed, a vertical gust causes a load factor of 3, the load factor n caused by the same gust at a speed of 1.2 VS would be:“
Answer: not greater than 1.44, because the aeroplane is stalled with a higher load facto rat 1.2 VS
I have no idea how to figure it out.
