M Mayumi New member Jul 9, 2009 #1 An airplane has an effective wing surface area of 11.4 m^2 that is generating the lift force. In level flight the air speed over the top of the wings is 53.0 m/s, while the air speed beneath the wings is 38.0 m/s. What is the weight of the plane?

D Daniel New member Jul 9, 2009 #2 I think we need more info ( i may be wrong) We don't know what the plane weighs when it is still on the ground. We also do not know what the pressure of the air is on either side. I believe more info is needed.
