The surface area of the right ruddervators on an aircraft can be calculated using basic geometric principles. Ruddervators are control surfaces that combine the functions of both the rudder (used for yaw control) and the elevator (used for pitch control). Here’s the formula, definition, and SI unit:
- Surface Area of Right Ruddervators:
- Measure the length of the right ruddervators (from the root to the tip).
- Measure the width of the right ruddervators (perpendicular to its length).
- Calculate the surface area of the right ruddervators using the formula:
