Formulas:

Airplane specifications generally include pieces of information about the range, cruise speed, and fuel capacity of a given airplane. These three items make it possible to calculate fuel consumption, range, and cruise speed.

Equations:

To find nautical miles use the following equation:

null

DIVIDE

To find the time it takes to travel a given distance at a given speed, use the following equation:

null

To find the airplane's fuel consumption: For any problem after 14 do not subtract the 10% fuel capacity. Use the total amount of fuel divided by total time.

null

Note:

Total fuel is considered the total amount of fuel excluding any fuel reserves. Reserves can generally be considered 10% of the total amount of fuel capacity for the airplane. Total time is the number that you calculated in using distance and speed.

NM = nautical miles = 1.15 miles = 1.85 kilometers

KTS = knots 1 knot = 1.15 miles/hour

FPM = feet per minute

Calculating minutes:

To calculate actual time you will need to take the answer you get from the formula and multiply it by 60. This will give you the total minutes. You will then subtract the hour minutes from the total minutes to calculate the minutes remaining.

As they create new airplane designs, aerospace engineers document their work.
Why is such documentation important? Select all that apply.

To provide future historians artifacts to exhibit in museums.

To avoid making the same mistakes again.

To provide managers records for evaluating the progress of their workers.

To know what worked and continue improving those designs.
