How can wind give us energy?
By blowing a kite
How do kites fly?
the wind in the sky blow the kite therefore helps the kite go up into the air so the kite can flyA kite flys by the wind blowing beneath the kite wich makes the kite go higher
What are the two forces that act on a flying kite?
no your wrong the force of the wind must be greater than the force of gravity
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.
What does gravity do to a kite?
Gravity is a strong force that pushes things to the ground. Unfortunately, some objects have a mass that is able to be pushed around by other forces, namely wind, and so in the case of a kite, wind takes over gravity, and flies the kite.

How do kites stay up in the air?
Kites stay in the air because of the force exerted on them by moving air (wind). If there were no wind then the kite would fall to the ground. This is because gravity is always trying to pull the kite down. Now the force of wind comes in to play to keep the kite in the air. The kite is at an angle to the ground, and it looks like this slash when it is flying in the air ---> / That is important because as the kite catches the wind two orthogonal forces are applied to the kite. One that is anti-parallel to gravity (Meaning the force is pointing up.) and one that is orthogonal to gravity. We don't necessarily care about the orthogonal force for our example so let's forget about it. The force generated on the kite that is anti-parallel to gravity is what keeps it in the air, so long as the anti-parallel force is greater than the weight of the kite.
What are the last lines of the book The Kite Runner?
The last lines of "The Kite Runner" by Khaled Hosseini are: "I ran with the wind blowing in my face, and a smile as wide as the Valley of Panjsher on my lips. I ran."
How do kites fly what forces act on a kite?
Kites fly by harnessing the lift force generated by the wind as it flows over the kite's surface. The shape and angle of the kite help create lift, while the tail helps stabilize and steer the kite. Gravity acts downward counteracting the lift force, and tension in the string keeps the kite connected to the flyer.

Why is drag important to fly a kite?
because the drag helps the kite have balance,and it helps the kite fly further and better,and if kite didnt have a drag force they wouldn't have balance when theyre flying and they will lose their capacity to fly,so without drag it is not possible for a kite to fly.
Why could a kite caught in a powerline is dangerous to try to retrieve?
If you touch the kite while you are in contact with the ground or anything touching the ground, like a ladder, electricity will travel from the power lines down the kite and into you, and you will be shocked.

What other force must be acting on the kite to stop it from falling?
Air resistance would be one.

Examples of newtons first law?
a marble will keep lying on the floor until a force is applied on it.
