The standard sea level value of viscosity coefficient for air is μ = 1.7894×10−5 kg/(m · s) = 3.7373 × 10−7 slug/(ft · s). The wing on a Piper Cherokee general aviation aircraft is rectangular, witha span of 9.75 m and a chord of 1.6 m. The aircraft is flying at cruisingspeed (141 mi/h) at sea level. Assume that the skin-friction drag on thewing can be approximated by the drag on a flat plate of the samedimensions. Calculate the skin-friction drag:a. If the flow were completely laminar (which is not the case in real life)b. If the flow were completely turbulent (which is more realistic)Compare the two results.
Q6. Two large fixed parallel planes are 12 mm apart. The space between the surfaces is filled with oil of viscosity 0.972 N.s / m².

The purpose of this problem is to give you a feel for the magnitude ofReynolds number appropriate to real airplanes in actual flight. a. Consider the DC-3 shown in (1.1). The wing root chord length(distance from the front to the back of the wing where the wing joinsthe fuselage) is 14.25 ft. Consider the DC-3 flying at 200 miles perhour at sea level. Calculate the Reynolds number for the flow over thewing root chord. (This is an important number, because as we will seelater, it governs the skin-friction drag over that portion of the wing.)b.
