An aircraft (m\=2.0×105kg, wing area 400m2) flies level. What is the pressure difference across the wings? (Take g\=9.8m

ΔP⋅A = mg. mg = 2.0×105×9.8 = 1.96×106N, A = 400m2. ΔP = 1.96×106400 = 4900Pa. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to 4900 Pa. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option C is scientifically correct.

An aircraft (m\=2.8×105kg, wing area 480m2) flies level. What is the pressure difference across the wings? (Take g\=9.8m

ΔP⋅A = mg. mg = 2.8×105×9.8 = 2.744×106N, A = 480m2. ΔP = 2.744×106480 = 5716.67Pa≈5717Pa. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to 5717 Pa. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option B is scientifically correct.

An aircraft (m\=2.2×105kg, wing area 440m2) flies level. What is the pressure difference across the wings? (Take g\=10m/

ΔP⋅A = mg. mg = 2.2×105×10 = 2.2×106N, A = 440m2. ΔP = 2.2×106440 = 5000Pa. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to 5000 Pa. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option C is scientifically correct.
