Best Answer

A wing is shaped flat on the underside and curved on the top. When a plane is taking off the air/wind flows much faster over the underside than over the top of the wing. This difference in pressure (hi under wing and low over top) creates lift and causes the plane to 'take off' if the speed is right and there is enough lift.

What do you feel on an airplane takeoff?

When an airplane takes off, passengers will feel the acceleration and lift off of the plane as it leaves the ground. Sometimes this can make passengers nervous, or as it receives elevation, it can make peoples ears pop.


What happens when an airplane takes off against the wind?

It then produces lift due to wing configuration and can take off


What is Landspeed of a airplane at take off?

This varies greatly from airplane to airplane, as well as according to ground wind conditions. Keep in mind that landspeed does not matter to an airplane nearly as much as AIRspeed. For example, your typical 4-seater single engine airplane takes off at around 60mph airspeed. Given a 20mph headwind, this aircraft could take off at 40mph GROUND speed. If you are interested in how fast the ground is wizzing by when youre looking out the window of the airliner. Most airliners take off at around 150 to 180 mph AIRspeed.


Why was the airplane named the airplane?

An airplane was named an airplane because it fly's in the AIR and the came up with the word plane. IDK im going out on a limb here but i believe plane comes from geometry, where you have the plane of a surface. the surface in reference is the ground. a flat surface in which it takes off from.


How does airplane works?

As an airplane moves forward a vacuum forms on top of the wing. That vacuum lifts the airplane off the ground and into the air.

Can airplane takes off on the moon?

No. They need air for lift.


How does an airplane take off the ground?

he engine is accelerared and the airplane moves down the runway gaining sped. When speed is high enough, 'lift' is created around the wings and it lifts off the ground.


Why do your ears pop when your airplane takes off?

As the plane climbs, the pressure drops, even in a pressure cabin. The pop is your ears equalizing from ground pressure to altitude pressure.


What happens when your airplane takes off from an airstrip on the ground and rises 30000 feet into the sky what happens to the air pressure on the outside of the airplane?

Atmospheric pressure is caused by the weight of air above the measurement point. At 30,000 feet in the sky, the air pressure on the outside of the airplane will be much lower than it was nearer the ground.
