What are the forces of a plane flying at a steady height?

Thrust, drag, lift, and weight.


When the plane is flying at a constant heightwhich two forces must be balanced?

Gravity and lift.


When are the 4 forces of flight equal?

The plane will fly at steady height and speed :)


Sketch a line and a plane that do not intersect?

Sketching it is impossible here but think of the ground as the plane and the endless flight of a bee (the bee-line) flying at a constant height as the line which does not intersect it.


If a plane is flying at a constant speed and height is weight and lift equal?

If weight and lift aren't equal, then there's a net vertical force on the plane, and it must have vertical acceleration.


An aeroplane flying at a constant velocity releases a bomb. As the bomb drops down from the aeroplane what will be the position of the bomb with respect to the plane?

There are two forces on the bomb when it is dropped; horizontal, and vertical. The vertical force is gravity, and the horizontal force is the velocity of the plane when the bomb is dropped. In order to determine how far away the bomb will drop from the initial point of release, it is necessary to know the height that the plane is at, and the velocity of the plane, which is also the initial horizontal velocity of the bomb (it is constant, neglecting air resistence.)


What is the height of a flying plane going to Britain?

38 thousand feet.


An airplane flies at constant speed in a horizontal straight path in other words the flying plane is in equilibrium two horizontal forces act on the plane one is the thrust of the propellers that push?

The other in your scenario is air friction / "drag".


A plane traveling at a constant speed is able to travel 750 miles in 5 hours How fast is the plane flying?

150 MPH


Forces on steady speed on plane?

thrust, lift, drag and weight. these are all balanced forces as it is travelling at a constant speed.


What did Orville Wright do when Wilbur was flying the plane?

He kept a record of the time, distance and height of the flight.


What is the average velocity of the plane if flying eastward at a constant speed travels 300km in 2.0 h?

300/2 = 150 km/h
