The flow speeds of air on the lower and upper surfaces of the wing of an aeroplane are $v$ and $2v$ respectively. The density of air is $\rho$ and the surface area of the wing is $A$. The dynamic lift on the wing is:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{2}\rho v^2 A$
  • B
    $\rho v^2 A$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{2}\rho v^2 A$
  • D
    $2\rho v^2 A$
