    NAME: ______________________________ DATE: ___________

    Midterm Examination

    Absolute honesty and strict discipline such as NO TALKING or GLANCING around are to be observed
    during examination.
    Examination paper handed in may not be taken back.

    I. Identification
    1. The force that moves the aircraft forward.
    2. The force that pulls the aircraft toward the earth.
    3. The force that pushes the aircraft upward.
    4. The force that exerts a braking action to hold the aircraft back.
    5. Is the angle between the relative wind and the chord line of the
    wing?
    6. Drag which is related to the smoothness (or roughness) of the aircraft
    surfaces.
    7. Is defined as all drag that is not associated with the production of lift.
    8. Also known as pressure drag or profile drag is caused by the
    separation of the boundary layer from a surface and the wake created by that
    separation.
    9. is generated by the mixing of airflow streamlines between airframe
    components
    10. Is an inevitable consequence of lift and is produced by the passage of
    an airfoil (e.g. wing or tailplane) through the air.
    11. Is a force, or drag that retards the forward movement of an airplane,
    in both supersonic and transonic flight, as a consequence of the formation of shock
    waves.
    12. May be considered as a point at which all the weight of the aircraft is
    concentrated.
    13. Is the distance the airplane will, with power off, travel forward in
    relation to the altitude it loses.
    14. Is a graph which contrasts the sink rate of an aircraft with its
    horizontal speed?
    15. Results from a rapid decrease in lift caused by the separation of
    airflow from the wing’s surface brought on by exceeding the critical AOA.
    II. Solve the ff. problem

    1. Find the lift and lift Coefficient of the given information


    Reference area = 5500 Ft 2
    Density = 0.00058735 slug/ Ft 2
    Weight = 637,000 lb.
    Velocity = 871 ft. /s

    2. Find the Lift coefficient of the given information


    CL0 = 0.29
    CLα = 5.5
    Angle of Attack, α = 2.4°

    3. Find the angle of attack with the given information


    Reference area = 5600 Ft 2
    Density = 0.00058735 slug/ Ft 2
    Weight = 637,000 lb.
    Velocity = 871 ft. /s
    CL0 = 0.29
    CLα = 5.5

    4. Find the lift and lift Coefficient of the given information


    Reference area = 5500 Ft 2
    Density = 0.00058735 slug/ Ft 2

    Velocity = 875 ft. /s

    5. Find the Lift coefficient of the given information


    CL0 = 0.29
    CLα = 6.5
    Angle of Attack, α = 3.4°
