yes
yes increasing wingspan does increase glide distance.. the reasons are complicated but it has to do with increasing lift while simultaneously decreasing induced drag
We watched the graceful ballerina glide across the stage. He glides easily on his ice skates while she stumbles because she's just learning. The plane seems to glide effortlessly across the sky.
airbus is a european company, while boeing is an american company.
The final production model of the Boeing 757 was the 300 series. The two main engines for 757-300 are the Rolls Royce RB211-535E4B and Pratt & Whitney PW2043. The PW2043 has a rated output of 43,000 pounds of thrust while the Rolls Royce is 43,100.
In the Air, the Plane flys on the engines on the wing. If an engine goes out the engine stays out and it flys on the remaining ones. On the ground the Airport may have a few engines available to swap out if something is drastically wrong with the engine. Commericial Passenger aircraft have an Auxillary Power Unit (APU) that is a turbine engine that provides electrical and hydraulic power for emergencies or while a/c is parked on the ground. The Boeing 747 has its APU mounted in the tail--that is the exhaust you see when you look at the hole in the tail. Boeing 727 have an APU mounted in its wheel well; its inlet is on one side the the exhaust is on the other side. Usually on the ground, the aircraft is plugged into ground power carts and air conditioning carts, but the APU can be used.
While a 707 or any jet could run on gasoline for a period of time, jet engines run on jet fuel which is similar to kerosene or diesel fuel.
These two planes are very different. The Airbus A300 is joystick flown while the 777 has traditional yokes. The 777 is also longer, has bigger engines and 14 wheels.
paper airplanes glide while most real airplanes have a source of propulsion also in a paper air plane you fold, it in a real airplane you weld it together
no, that's a action
The homograph in the words "cruel" and "glide" is the letter combination "i." In "cruel," the "i" is pronounced as /juː/, while in "glide," it is pronounced as /aɪ/.
The Boeing 707-120B can fly at 540 knots or 1000km/h while the Boeing 707-320B can fly at 525 knots or 972km/h.
The Boeing 777-200 is 247,200kg at the maximum takeoff weight while an empty one is 134,800kg.
