A symmetrical airfoil section produces a lift coefficient of 0.53 at an angle of attack of 5 degrees
measured from its chord line. An untwisted wing of elliptical planform and aspect ratio 6 is made of
this airfoil. At an angle of attack of 5 degrees relative to its chordal plane, this wing would produce a
lift coefficient of
