A Pitot-static probe is used to measure the speed of an aircraft flying at 3000 m. If the differential pressure reading is 3200 N/m2, determine the speed of the aircraft in m/s. The density of air at an altitude of 3000 m is 0.909 kg/m3.

Speed of aircraft ; (V_1) = 83.9 m/s

Explanation:

The height at which aircraft is flying = 3000 m

The differential pressure = 3200 N/m²

From the table i attached, the density of air at 3000 m altitude is; ρ = 0.909 kg/m3

Now, we will solve this question under the assumption that the air flow is steady, incompressible and irrotational with negligible frictional and wind effects.

Thus, let's apply the Bernoulli equation :

P1/ρg + (V_1)²/2g + z1 = P2/ρg + (V_2)²/2g + z2

Now, neglecting head difference due to high altitude i.e ( z1=z2 ) and V2 =0 at stagnation point.

We'll obtain ;

P1/ρg + (V_1)²/2g = P2/ρg

Let's make V_1 the subject;

(V_1)² = 2(P1 - P2)/ρ

(V_1) = √(2(P1 - P2)/ρ)

P1 - P2 is the differential pressure and has a value of 3200 N/m² from the question

Thus,

(V_1) = √(2 x 3200)/0.909)

(V_1) = 83.9 m/s

f

answer:

d. attempt to find the owner, then leave your information if you cannot find them.

explanation:

d. represents both (b) and (c).

more logical as well.

b and c are to complicated.

glad i could , give me a follow, so if you need with any other question, im here.
