Detailed Solution

Let v1, v2 are the speed of air on the lower and upper surface S of the wings of the plane P1 and P2 are the Pressure there.According to Bernoulli's theoremP1+12ρv12 = P2+12ρv22P1-P2 = 12ρ(v22-v12)Here, v1 = 234 km h-1 = 234×518ms-1 = 65 ms-1 v2 = 270 km h-1 = 270×518 = 75 ms-1Area of wings = 2× 25 m2 = 50 m2P1-P2 =12×1(752-652)Upward force on the plane = (P1-P2)A = 12×1×(752-652)×50 mAs the plane is in level flight, therefore upward force balances the weight of the planemg = (P1-P2)AMass of the plane,m = (P1-P2)gA  = 12×1×(752-652)10×50= (75+65)(75-65)×502×10 = 3500 kg
