A pitching moment coefficient changes by \( -0.04 \) for a lift coefficient change of \( 0.50 \). The static margin is

  • A.0.02 chord
  • B.12.5 chord
  • C.0.46 chord
  • D.0.08 chord

Answer: D

The static margin is the negative of the slope, \( 0.04/0.50 = 0.08 \). Measuring the slope against lift coefficient rather than angle of attack gives the margin directly, which is why the curve is usually plotted that way.
