Velocity word problem

Question

For the equation v=8.8 square root L/A where the A is the area of the wings of a jet in square feet and L is the lift of the jet in newtons. Find the velocity of the wing with and area of 5.5•10^3 square feet and a lift of 1.4•10^7 newtons

Answer 1

Just plug in the numbers 

 

v = 8.8*sqrt(1.4x10⁷/5.5x10³)

   = 8.8*sqrt(2545.454545)

   = 8.8*50.4525

   = 443.98 ~ 444.0
