Consider an airplane patterned after the Beechcraft Bonanza V-tailed, single-engine light private airplane. The characteristics of the airplane are as follows: aspect ratio = 6.2, wing area = 181 ft2, Oswald efficiency factor = 0.91, weight = 3500 lb, and zero-lift drag coefficient = 0.027. The airplane is powered by a single piston engine of 345 hp maximum at sea level. Assume the power of the engine is proportional to free-stream density. The two-blade propeller has an efficiency of 0.83. Estimate the sea-level liftoff distance for the airplane. Assume a paved runway and CL,max = 1.1 during the ground roll. When the airplane is on the ground, the wings are 4 ft above the ground.

Consider a case of single slit diffraction where we are directing a beam of light (of wavelength λ) through a single slit of unknown width “D”. The pattern will be observed on a screen a distance L from the slit. We will be able to take measurements of the pattern on the screen. Sketch the pattern you would expect to see and derive an expression to relate a characteristic length of the pattern on the screen to the width of...

Consider a seller who must sell a single private value good. There are two potential buyers, each with a valuation that is drawn independently and uniformly from the interval [0, 1]. The seller will offer the good using a second-price sealed-bid auction, but he can set a “reserve price” ofr ≥ 0 that modifies the rules of the auction as follows. If both bids are below r then neither bidder obtains the good and it is destroyed. If both bids...
