An F-16's typical maneuvering speed is 450 knots (NM/hr). Assuming that its combat weight (W) is 25,000 pounds and that its wing area (S) is 300 square feet: A. What is this aircraft's wing loading (W/S) in English and SI consistent units? B. Express maneuvering speed in statute mph, km/hr, ft/sec, m/ sec. C. If the pressure and temperature at some point on the surface of the aircraft is 0.91 atm and 278 K respectively, what are the pressure, temperature, density and specific volume at that same location, in English and SI consistent units? D. If a speed brake with a frontal area of 12 square feet is deployed at that speed, and the resulting pressure on its frontal surface 1.2 atm, while the aft surface experiences 1 atm, what is the net braking force due to this device?
