What best describes the structure and function of an airplane wing?
A wing must first be laminar (smooth). The top of the wing should have a greater surface area than the bottom of the wing. Because of these two factors the air above the wing must have a greater relative velocity to the wing than the air below does. Faster moving air has a lower presser and therefore a net upward force is created by motion through air. Just in case you weren't looking for Physics, airplane wings typically store fuel for flight
What is the most important part of an airplane?
The wing spar. The spar is the main structure of the wing that supports the load of the entire airplane. All the loads go through the wing into the wing spar and down to the center of it, which is called the "wing box". (You could call this the most important part,)An airplane may fly without its engines. It might be able to fly without its flight controls. But it can not fly if the wing spar breaks.

Why does the lift on an airplane wing increase as the speed of the airplane increases?
The pressure above the wing be Save comes less than the pressure below the wing.
When was the airplane invinted?

Is it wind like structure or wing like structure?
Wing like structure
What is the best wing shape for a airplane?
The best wing shape for sn airplane is like a triangle because it fly straight
Does the shape of an airplane wing matter?
Yes because an airplane wing has to cut through wind and create loft and lift.
What type of air is above an airplane wing when it is flying?
The air above an airplane wing in flight is at lower pressure than the air below the wing. Hope this helps.
What is the wing span of an airplane?
It's the length of the wing. Depends on make.
Can an airplane fly with one wing?
No.
