Write the formulae of standard mean chord and aerodynamic mean chord.
2.
Draw a wing plan form with taper but no sweepback and also draw a wing plan form with
sweepback but no taper.
3.
There exists a Mach wave in a supersonic flow with Mach number 1.35 before the Mach
wave. What will be the Mach number of the flow after the Mach wave? Will this value
increase or decrease if the Mach wave is replaced by an oblique shock wave?
4.
Define wind tunnel. Write the name of main components of a subsonic wind tunnel.

7.
Define induced drag. Also write its expression in the terms of lift.
8.
9.
Draw a sample case of oblique shock showing free stream and after stream Mach numbers
and so the wave angle as well as deflection angle.
10. Describe the difference between Mach Wave and Normal Shock Wave

15. Define Mach cone and the Mach angle. Draw a sample Mach triangle and show the Mach
angle in the picture.

An airplane is cruising at an altitude of 1 km. The noise of its engine is heard by a listener
standing on the ground when the airplane has passed the listener by 1.8 km. Find the speed
and the Mach number of the airplane. Also find the Mach angle of the Mach cone so
formed. Assume the velocity of sound to be constant at sea level condition.
