Question
Air is streaming past a horizontal air plane wing such that its speed is 120m/s over the upper surface and 90 m/s at the lower surface. If the density of air is 1.3 kg per metre3 and the wing is 10 m long and has an average width of 2 m, then the difference of the pressure on the two sides of the wing is
Options:
A .  4095.0 Pascal
B .  409.50 Pascal
C .  40.950 Pascal
D .  4.0950 Pascal
Answer: Option A
:
A
From the Bernoulli's theorem
P1P2=12ρ(v22v21)=12×1.3×[(120)2(90)2]
=4095N/m2 or Pascal
