Aviation formulas

How do you write equations of motion for a flight vehicle?

The equations of motion for a flight vehicle usually are written in a body-fixed coordinate system

It is convenient to choose the vehicle center of mass as the origin for this system, and the orientation of the (right-handed) system of coordinate axes is chosen by convention so that, as illustrated in Fig

What does p mean in aerodynamics?

Aerodynamics Formulas Deﬁnitions p = The air pressure

(Pa = N/m2) ρ = The air density

(kg/m3) g = The gravitational constant

(Value at sea level is 9

81N/kg) (N/kg) h = The height above the earth surface

(m) V = The speed of the airplane relative to the air

(m/s) p t= The total pressure

(Pa = N/m2) p 0= The static pressure
