A medium-sized jet has a 3.8-m-diameter fuselage and a loaded mass of 85,000 kg. The drag on an airplane is primarily due to the cylindrical fuselage, and aerodynamic shaping gives it a drag coefficient of 0.37. How much thrust must the jetβs engines provide to cruise at 230 m/s at an altitude where the air density is 1.0 kg/mΒ³?
π Solution Approach
Given: 85,000 kg, 230 m, 1.0 kg
