Textbook Question
Chapter 12.1, Problem 3eT
Consider the following student dialogue:
| Student 1: | “The pressure at a point is equal to the weight of the water above divided by the area. Therefore the pressure at point R is greater than the pressure at point S because there’s no water above point S.” |
| Student 2: | “I agree. The pressure is , and h is zero for point S and greater than zero for point R. Therefore, the presser at R must; be greater.” |
Do you agree with either student? Explain your reasoning.

- Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. An airplane has wings, each with area 4.15 m2, designed so that air flows over the top of the wing at 246 m/s and underneath the wing at 221 m/s. Find the mass of the airplane such that the lift on the plane will support its weight, assuming the force from the pressure difference across the wings is directed straight upwards. Approximately what size wings would an aircraft need on Mars if its engine generates the same differences in speed as in the "Practice It" and the total mass of the craft is 350 kg?
