An airplane flies at a speed of 400 mph at an altitude of 10,000 ft. If the boundary layers on the wing surfaces behave as those on a flat plate, find the extent of laminar boundary layer flow along the wing. Assume a transitional Reynolds number of 500,000. For the same speed at sea level is the extent of the laminar region greater or less compared to that at 10,000 ft? Explain.
