Consider a flat plate at an angle of attack of 2° in a mach 2.2 airflow. (mach 2.2 is the cruising mach number of the concorde supersonic transport.) the length of the plate in the flow direction is 202 ft, which is the length of the concorde. assume that the free-stream conditions correspond to a standard altitude of 50,000 ft. the total drag on this plate is the sum of wave drag and skin friction drag. assume that a turbulent boundary layer exists over the entire plate. the results given in ch. 4 for skin friction coefficients hold for incompressible flow only; there is a compressibility effect on cf such that its value decreases with increasing mach number. specifically, at mach 2.2 assume that the cf given in ch. 4 is reduced by 20 percent. a) given all the preceding information, calculate the total drag coefficient for the plate. b) if the angle of attack is increased to 5°, assuming that cf stays the same, calculate the total drag coefficient. c) for these cases, what can you conclude about the relative influence of wave drag and skin friction drag?

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.
