What helps an airplane fly?
Lift created from wind under the wings
What are 5 things the wright brothers did?
Invented the first controlled airplane Flew the first controlled airplane Tested the first controlled airplane Created the first controlled airplane and.... the last is for another Wiki-Goer.
Who created the first airplane?
The Wright brothers
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
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.
What is it called when an aircraft is landing and it keeps alike 'floating' above the Runway before touching down?
An airplane begins its "Flare" once it enters "ground effect. Ground effect is what causes the airplane to float because of an increase in lift(what makes an airplane fly). This increase is caused by induced drag, created by the production of lift.
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.
Where was the airplane created?
The first airplane was built by the Wright Brothers at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, USA.
