Induced drag in airplane is reduced by?
winglet
What is Advantage of swept back wing?
reduced drag
How is drag reduced?
Change the shape / Reduce the size / smooth the surface texture.
What is the main purpose of a parachute?
Drag. It reduced the fall rate to a survivable speed.
How are airplanes designed to reduce drag?
the drag of air craft is reduced by aerofoil design, retractable under carriage besides advanced augmentations.
What is auto draft?
auto draftingDrafting in a car means to drive very close behind a car so as to be in its slipstream. This reduced drag on the car and allows for faster speeds. This is a common practice in auto racing before passing an opponent
How does motion of an object change over time?
Its velocity is reduced as a result of friction and drag.
How can drag be reduced when flying a plane?
Keeping the aircraft as light as possible. Having the centre of gravity as far back(aft) as the flight manual will allow. Flying at the minimum drag speed.
What about wingtip using in aircraft?
Reduced certain type of drag (air resistance) and thus improves fuel efficiency and range.
How can parasite drag of an airplane be reduced?
It can be reduce by streamline as many of the parts as possible, by using fairing , surface of aeroplane cleaned and polished.
How do you control drag from increasing on helicopter?
Drag cannot be eliminated because drag always acts parallel to the relative wind. We can control by purchasing or using the right airfoil on the aircraft. An airfoil with smooth surface produces more lift than one with a rough surface. A rough surface creates turbulence, which reduced lft and increases drag.
In swimming what is the relationship between drag and swimming?
Well "drag" is usually used to describe something that will slow you, like a drag suit worn over a jammer or Fastskins, or simply wearing another suit. Swimming without that will not slow you at all, therefore in practice swimmers use drag to improve and go faster in meets.
