Mechanical Engineering

Consider an airplane patterned after the Fairchild RepublicA-10, a twin-jet attack aircraft. The airplane has the followingcharacteristics: wing area = 47 m2, aspect ratio = 6.5,Oswald efficiency factor = 0.87, weight = 103,047 N, and zero-liftdrag coefficient = 0.032. The airplane is equipped with two jetengines with 40,298 of static thrust each at sea level. Thethrust-specific fuel consumption is 1.0 N of fuel per Newton ofthrust per hour. The fuel capacity is 2800 gal, and the maximumgross weight is 136,960 N. Calculate the range and endurance at astandard altitude of 8 km, where ?? = 0.526kg/m3.
