Is thrust a push or pull?
It can be either or. In terms of on aircraft, it depends on where an engine is located on an airplane. Engines on the wings of an aircraft (like a DC-3 or a Hercules cargo airplane) generate a push. Engines on a CF-18 Hornet or an F-15 Phantom are also engines that generate a push-type of thrust because the engine is located closer to the rear of the fuselage. However, single-prop airplanes like a Cessna bush plane or a Spit-fire generate more of a pulling thrust since the engine is in front of the fuselage.
What do airplanes and rockets have in common?
an engine for thrust and wings/fins for control.
What makes smaller airplanes go faster than bigger airplanes?
There are four factors that are exerted on airplanes. Thrust, Drag, Gravity and lift. Lift must be higher then gravity to make a plane go up. Thrust be be stronger then drag to make a plane go faster. As a plane becomes larger, more drag is added to the plane. This requires more thrust to maintain the same speed. So, as a plane gets larger the amount of power an engine must produce goes up drastically. Small planes with the same horsepower or thrust ratings will alays be able to go faster.
What part of a plane and of a jet are used to create thrust?
The motors or engines. The propeller(s) generate forward thrust on piston or turbo-prop aircraft, and on jet aircraft, thrust is created both by combustion exhaust and by bypass air from the fan(s).
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.
Does thrust effect a paper airplanes?
An arm throwing it is causing the thrust.
What provides thrust for airplanes?
An engine driving a propeller or a turbine causes thrust.
What is thrust in airplanes?
The propulsion provided by the engines.
How does an airplane generate thrust?
power
How does the peregrine facon generate thrust?

What is the kind of spinner used to give thrust to some airplanes?
The spinner alone gives no thrust. The shape of the propeller is what moves the air and gives thrust.

What is the difference between the wright brothers' airplane and the airplanes today?
the wright brothers airplane was powered by a propeller that generated lift through a bi-winged design while modern airplanes are powered by jet engines that generate thrust in turn making lift over a single wing design
What are the names of the forces involved in flying airplanes?
Lift, Drag, Thrust and Weight.
Is the upward force on a airplane wing is thrust?
Thrust is the forward motion of the airplane provided by the engines. Lift is the upward force on an airplanes wing.
How thrust is produced in Boeing 747?
Four GE turbofan engines generate 56,000 pounds of thrust each. This adds to 224,000 pounds of thrust altogether.
