What is thrust in an aircraft?
Thrust is the power made by a jet engine to propel an aircraft.
What does thrust do to an airplane?
Thrust drives an aircraft forward.
What causes the thrust of an airplane?
The engine causes thrust, it moves the aircraft.
What is thrust for an airplane?
Thrust is the produced force of the aircraft that propels the aircraft forward in order to overcome drag. Drag is the natural force of the air that resists the motion of the aircraft.
Define weight and balance in an aircraft?
The design process has to take into account weight, lift, drag and thrust. For example smaller engines require larger flying surfaces. Fighter aircraft have less wing square area and have stronger thrust jet engines. Such are the tolerances in modern aircraft that they are generally designed to carry twice there recommended loadings.
How does thrust have an effect on an airplane?
Thrust causes an aircraft to roll forward, gaining wind pressure over the wings. When wind pressure is sufficient this will lift the aircraft.
Why does an airplane need thrust?
An aircraft needs an engine to get thrust and roll forward to gain lift.
What is the importants of thrust to weight ratio in aircraft?
It is important because it is essential for for climbing of aircraft. There is a limit for thrust to weight ratio. When an airplane exceeds it, it cannot climb effeciently.
How does thrust and lift help an airplane fly?
Lift keeps an aircraft up, thrust pushes it forward.
What cause thrust to increase or decrease?
Thrust can increase when engine power is increased or when the angle of attack of the aircraft is increased. Thrust can decrease when engine power is reduced or when drag on the aircraft increases due to factors like airspeed or weight.
What is the relation between net thrust and gross thrust in a ramjet engine?
Net thrust in a ramjet engine is the actual useful thrust generated for propulsion, while gross thrust is the total thrust including the contributions from ram pressure. The net thrust is the difference between the gross thrust and the drag of the engine itself. The net thrust determines the actual propulsion force available for moving the aircraft forward.
How are horsepower and thrust related in a jet aircraft?
The more horsepower you have, the more thrust you will be able to produce. The more horsepower you have, the more thrust you will be able to produce.
