Freestream Velocity given required Power Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Freestream Velocity = Power/Thrust
V_∞ = P/T
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Freestream Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Freestream Velocity is the velocity of air far upstream of an aerodynamic body, that is before the body has a chance to deflect, slow down or compress the air.
Power - (Measured in Watt) - Power is defined as the product of thrust force and velocity of aircraft.
Thrust - (Measured in Newton) - The Thrust of an aircraft is defined as the force generated through propulsion engines that move an aircraft through the air.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Power: 3000 Watt --> 3000 Watt No Conversion Required
Thrust: 100 Newton --> 100 Newton No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_∞ = P/T --> 3000/100

Evaluating ... ...

V_∞ = 30

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

30 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

30 Meter per Second <-- Freestream Velocity

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)
