A problem: An aeroplane that weighs 1000kg is flying at 3500ft with a speed of 100kts. What speed would the aeroplane gain on descending to 3000ft, assuming NO power change, no configuration/flaps changes and the air friction loss is 15%?
Bonus questions:
- Does it really depend on the mass of the aeroplane given?
- Would the flight path affect the answer – e.g. steep dive or steady…
