Consider the same Lockheed F-104 supersonic fighter shown, with the same flight conditions of Mach 2 at an altitude of 11 km. For these conditions the wing angle of attack is α = 0.035 rad = 1.98◦. Assume the chord length of the airfoil is 2.2 m, which is approximately the mean chord length for the wing. Also, assume fully turbulent flow over the airfoil. Calculate: (a) the airfoil skin friction drag coefficient, and (b) the airfoil wave-drag coefficient. Compare the two values of drag.
Compute for the drag of a rectangular wing with a chord of 4.5 ft and a span of 16 ft. if the dynamic pressure 80 psi. Cd of the wing is 0.030.

- Solve Parts A-C and label Them QUESTION: Suppose you buy a 3 x 7-ft sheet of plywood and put it on your roof rack. You drive home at 45 mi/h. Part A - If the board is perfectly aligned with the airflow, how thick is the boundary layer at the end of the board? Part B - Estimate the drag on the sheet of plywood if the boundary layer remains laminar?

The root chord is 8.33 ft. The measured profile drag coefficient of the NACA 2213 airfoil is 0.006 at a Reynolds number of 9 × 106. Consider the Spitfire cruising at an altitude of 19000 ft. Assume that μ varies as the square root of temperature. At this velocity and altitude, assuming completely turbulent flow, estimate the skin-friction drag coefficient for the NACA 2213 airfoil, and compare this with the total profile drag coefficient. Calculate the percentage of the profile drag coefficient that is due to pressure drag. (Round the final answer to three decimal places.)

Model the front and back hemispheres as flow over a sphere. For simplicity treat the cylindrical body and vertical stabilizer as flat plates.Hint 2: Use Cd vs Reynolds number graphs for sphere and flat plate.
