Homework Statement
What is the lift (in Newtons) due to Bernoulli's principle on a wing of area...m^2 if the air passes over the top and bottom surfaces at speeds of ...m/sand ...m/s, respectively? I've given the values but I just want to know if I'm doing the problem right conceptually.
Homework Equations
P1 + 1/2rv1^2= P2 + 1/2 r v2^2
F=P/A
The Attempt at a Solution
Hello, can someone help me with the approach to this problem?
I tried solving for P2-P1 in Bernoulli's and then using that as P in F=P/A and solving for F. I realize that the pressure on the bottom has to be greater than the pressure on the top to create lift so that's why I did P2-P1.
