The formula to calculate the Wing Loading is:
\[ WL = \frac{M}{WA} \]
Where:
Wing loading is the ratio of an aircraft's weight to the surface area of its wings. It is a critical parameter in the design and performance of an aircraft, affecting its lift, takeoff distance, and maneuverability. Wing loading is calculated by dividing the body mass by the wing area, giving a measure of how much load each unit area of the wing supports.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ WL = \frac{500}{25} = 20 \text{ kg/m²} \]
The Wing Loading is 20 kg/m².
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ WL = \frac{750}{30} = 25 \text{ kg/m²} \]
The Wing Loading is 25 kg/m².
