If moment coefficient about aerodynamic centre of wing is -0.216 and lift coefficient of wing is 1.2. Find moment coefficient about cg. Given cg location as Xcg = 0.3.(a) -0.156(b) 0.123(c) 0.56(d) -1.56I got this question in unit test.My question comes from Longitudinal Static Stability and Control-1 in section Stability, Control, and Handling Qualities of Aircraft Design

Answer»

Correct choice is (a) -0.156

For explanation I would say: Moment COEFFICIENT about CG = Moment coefficient about AERODYNAMIC CENTRE of + (wing LIFT coefficient*[Xcg-Xac])

= -0.216 + (1.2[0.3-0.25]) = -0.156.
