What two factors determine the amount or lift achieved by an airplane?
thrust and wing size determine the amount of lift achieved by an air plane.
What two factors determine the amount of lift achieved by an airplane?
velocity and the difference in pressure above and below the wings
What is The resisting force exerted on an airplane?
Lift opposes gravity and drag opposes thrust. An airplane turns using a small amount of vertical lift vectored in a horizontal direction. gravity from below, the wind currents, atmospheric pressure and weight of the plane from above.
What force that causes an airplane to rise?
Lift is the force that causes an airplane to rise. Lift is caused by the flowing of air under the wings. This causes the airplane to rise.
What holds an airplane up?
lift
What is the difference between a helicopter creating lift and anairplane creating lift?
the difference between an helicopter creating lift and an airplane creating lift is simple. an airplane creates lift by moving forward and its wing that has an aerofoil shaped will create lift. this gives the lift for the airplane and to fly. for helicopters, instead of the aerofoil is fix like an airplane, the aerofoil wing is rotating and create lift. that is why the helicopter does not need to move forward to gain momentum to create lift. by rotating the aerofoil (the blade) the helicopter can creates enough lift to lift up the helicopter.and that's how it fly..
Is the force that keeps an airplane in the air called lift or levitation?
Lift
How does an airplane take off?
Moving forward, air rushing over the wings causes them to produce lift. When the amount of lift created is greater than the weight of the plane it will rise off the ground.
What is the importance of wings on an airplane?
The importance of wings is critical to an airplane, they produce lift that can sustain the airplane in the air.
How do planes stay up?
Lift pushes the airplane up. The way air moves around the wings gives the airplane lift. The shape of the wings helps with lift, too.
Can an airplane stay in the sky?
I am going to assume that aeroplane=airplane when I answer this. An airplane stays in the air by generating lift on its wings. As long as an airplane can generate sufficent lift it can stay in the air. However once the lift being generated falls below what is required for the plane to stay up... uh oh.
What do the wings do on an airplane?
They are responsible for creating lift.
