Lift is created by different air pressure?
heat
How does altitude affect density and air pressure?
Altitude has a large affect on the air pressure and air density. Air density reduces with altitude and air pressure reduces with altitude as well.
What are the factors affect air pressure?
Three factors that affect air pressure are temperature, altitude, and water vapor.
Does Air pressure usually affect weather.?
false
Changes in air pressure directly affect what?
Movement of wind.
Can you fly a kite on the moon?
No, you cannot fly a kite on the moon because there is no atmosphere to create the wind needed for the kite to fly. In the absence of an atmosphere, there is no air pressure to generate the necessary lift for the kite to stay aloft.
How does a kite become airborne using Bernoulli's Principle?
It becomes airborne when the air pressure on the top of the kite becomes less than the pressure on the bottom. A kite acts somewhat like a wing on an airplane. The bottom of the wing is flat and the top is slightly rounded or curved causing the air pressure to be greater on the bottom creating lift. For this to happen the plane must reach a certain speed. The same holds true for a kite.
Why kites ascend in flight?
In an air flow the pressure above the kite is lower and the pressure under the kite is greater; as a result the kite ascend to lower pressures.

What makes kites fly?
The lifting force of all kites is produced by deflecting the air downward, the resulting change in momentum producing an upward force. The reason for this is that the air traveling over the top of the curved surface of the kite is going faster than the air passing underneath. Fast-moving air creates less pressure; this means there is more pressure underneath the kite, and this helps to force it upwards. Think of the kite as a sail boat, catching the air. The air tries to push the kite along like the sail boat. But the string the flyer holds keeps the kite tethered. Since the kite cannot go with the wind flow and the kite is tilted so that the air is deflected downward, the kite has no where to go but up. Both the lift-to-drag ratio and the stability of the kite are functions of the length of cable. The more cable released, the more drag created.
How do you fly a kite without wind?
To fly a kite without wind, you can try running with the kite behind you to create lift. Another option is to use a remote-controlled kite or a kite designed for indoor use that can fly without wind. Additionally, using a helium balloon to lift the kite can help it stay in the air.
Is there a greater or lesser air pressure on top of the wing when lift occurs?
There has to be lesser air pressure on the top of the wing to provide lift.
How does pressure affect the air?
Atmospheric pressure systems are made of air.
Lift is created by different air pressure?
heat
How does faster-moving air affect air pressure?
Air traveling at a high speed has less air pressure. This is how airplanes are able to generate lift. The top of the wing is curved and forces the air to move faster (by making it travel farther in the same amount of time) than the air below the wing.
How does altitude affect density and air pressure?
Altitude has a large affect on the air pressure and air density. Air density reduces with altitude and air pressure reduces with altitude as well.
Does air pressure affect gravity?
Gravity is a function of mass and distance. So, no air pressure does not affect gravity.
