A passenger plane is able to carry a fixed weight, including passengers and fuel.Which wing design would be best for such a plane?
A.Design 1
B.Design 2
C.Design 3
D.Design 4
To handle the question, you need to infer that the “best” design would be one that is most efficient in terms of its lift-to-drag ratio as well as in terms of fuel consumption. Fortunately,Tables 1 and 2 each show that design 2 is most efficient.
