You have been tasked to investigate lift and drag forces around airfoils exposed to hypersonic flows. You are specifically asked to experimentally characterize both forces employing a force balance system in pressurized wind tunnel experiments. With this type of system, a load cell is used to measure the lift and drag forces in an airfoil. Knowing that both forces are expected to vary non-linearly with Reynolds number, Mach number, and angle of attack, please answer at the best of your knowledge the following questions: a) What are the response variables of such an experimental setting? (5 pts)
b) What factors would you consider in your experimental design? Please express your answer in terms of controllable variables (e. g., air velocity, pressure, temperature, etc) (10 pts)
c) What is the minimum number of levels that you need to define for each factor? Why? (10 pts)

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.
