Calculate the Lee for the same wing if we increase the span to 0.245 m. By increasing the span we also increase the glider weight to 0.0523

Answer:

0.21

Step-by-step explanation:

This would have been a fairly easy one, except for that the first part of the question is missing, and as such, I'd assume a value.

We need to use chord, so, I'm assuming the length of the chord to be 0.045 m

The Area is given by the formula

Area = span * chord

Area = 0.245 * 0.045

Area = 0.011 m²

This area gotten, is what we then divide the glider weight by to get our answer.

Lee = area / weight

Lee = 0.011 / 0.0523

Lee = 0.21

Therefore, using the values of the chord I'd assumed, the Lee of the same wing is 0.21
