at
beginning
of
class
The
following
data
is
given
for
the
U.S.
Navy
A-4D
Attack
Aircraft
at
15,000ft
altitude
and
V=634ft/s
local air velocity in steady and level flight:
Question 2:
Assume that the Center of Gravity of the Aircraft moves to the back resulting in a change in the
M ! derivative:
a. Repeat
Question
1
Part
b,
c,
d
for
the
case
when M ! = -5s-2.
b. Repeat
Question
1
Part
b,
c,
d
for
the
case
when
M ! =0.
c. Repeat
Question
1
Part
b,
c,
d
for
the
case
when M ! = +5s-2.
d. Show the eigenvalues of the longitudinal dynamics that you obtained in Q1.d, Q2.a,b,c on one
complex plane, and show the change in the eigenvalues by connecting the same eigenvalues with
lines and arrows.

Notes:
The
Problem
can
be
done
quite
fast
using
Excel.
If
you
make
an
Excel
spread
sheet,
you
will
be
able
to
use
it
in
future
for
work
and
other
similar
projects.
Computer
outputs
can
be
submitted,
but
be
clear
and
precise
in
what
you
are
submitting
and
attach
the
code
to
your
submission.
Express
yourself
clearly.
No
need
for
fancy
report
formats.
Policy:
Students
are
encouraged
to
discuss
homework
verbally
with
each
other,
but
you
may
not
work
together
when
preparing
written
answers
nor
may
written
answers
be
compared.
Homework
is
due
at
the
beginning
of
class
on
the
day
it
is
due.
Late
homework
will
be
graded,
but
