An aircraft model was tested in a low speed wind-tunnel (Reynolds number =2×106 based on wing mean chord). The variation of pitching moment coefficient (Cm) with angle of attack (α) for two elevator deflections (δe) as recorded during this test is presented below.
Based on the result presented in the figure above, the value of elevator control power (Cmδe) in per radian will be _______ (in three decimal place).

Correct : -0.060 to -0.050
