What is the opposite of lift?
The opposite of the verb to lift is to lower.The opposite force factor, opposing aerodynamic lift, is weight. (gravity)
Is a biplane aerodynamic?
Yes, a biplane is very aerodynamic,with lots of 'lift'
What is aerodynamic?
Aerodynamics is the study of the way in wich objects move through the air. If something such as a car has an aerodynamic shape or design, it goes faster and uses less fuel than other cars because the air passes over it more easily. The form of a aerodynamic is used as a modifier.
What happens when airfoil doesn't have enough lift?
The effect is called an Aerodynamic stall
How do shapes of wings and or body affect flight?
The flight of a body mainly depends on its response to the atmospheric air, the shape of the body & the forces acting on the body i.e lift, drag, thrust & weight. The two forces lift & drag are the ones primly influenced by the shape of the body and account to the aerodynamic nature of the body. Every body produces certain amount of lift & drag but its only the measure of these forces affect the flight. More lift helps the body to sustain flight ; less drag accounts for more aerodynamic nature of the body i.e, less lift/thrust is required to sustain the flight and viceversa .
What forces are at work on a moving sailboat?
Drag (water and air), gravity, displacement buoyancy, aerodynamic lift,
How does aerodynamics work on airplanes?
The wings push air down, creating lift. Aerodynamic force causes drag and thrust to keep the airplane steady. They have to be made a certain way (aerodynamic) for this to work.
How can one modify own car so that it can be more aerodynamic?
Aerodynamic cars are more fuel efficient, it helps to reduce drag and lift forces at higher speeds. An aerodynamic car tends to be streamlined with integrate lights and wheels. Removal of sharp edges and a tail at the rear are the main features.
What are the forces in a fling aroplane?
Thrust (from engine), aerodynamic drag, lift (from wings) and weight (mass * acceleration due to gravity).
What has the author Carl L Gentry written?
Carl L. Gentry has written: 'Aerodynamic characteristcs of a propeller-powered high-lift semispanwing' -- subject(s): Aerodynamics
How long does it take a judge to lift a stay?
five seconds to sign your lift stay motion
How can air resistance help the motion of an object?
Normally, air resistance slows an object and this does not help motion, it impedes it. Lift, which is an aerodynamic force, is very helpful and it's caused by air resistance. This allows a plane to lift off and stay in flight.
