Problema 9

An 8.0×104 kg aircraft is orbiting Earth at a constant velocity. The forces acting on it are depicted in the figure below. The thrust generated by the onboard propulsion system is Fw = 7.2×105N, acting on a line 1.8 m below the aircraft's center of mass. Calculate the drag force FDF_D exerted by the atmosphere and the distance above the center of mass where it acts. Assume that both FD and FW are horizontal. (Flift represents the lift force generated by the aircraft's wings, if any.)
Diagram of an aircraft showing forces: lift, weight, thrust, and drag, with center of mass indicated.
