An aircraft with twin jet engines has the following specifications:
Thrust produced (per engine) = 8000 N,
Spanwise distance between the two engines = 10 m, Wing area = 50 m2,
Wing span = 10 m, Rudder effectiveness, Cnδr = -0.002/deg,
Density of air at sea level = 1.225 kg/m3.
The rudder deflection, in degrees, required to maintain zero sideslip at 100 m/s in steady and level flight at sea level with a non-functional right engine is _______. (round off to two decimal places)

Correct : 6.50 to 6.60
