What term creates the lift that allows gliders to fly?
unequal pressure
How do aeroplanes fly even though there airfoils cant flap like birds wings?
The different air pressure above and below the wings creates lift and allows the 'plane to fly given enough forward motion.The different air pressure above and below the wings creates lift and allows the 'plane to fly given enough forward motion.
What is the difference between a helicopter creating lift and anairplane creating lift?
the difference between an helicopter creating lift and an airplane creating lift is simple. an airplane creates lift by moving forward and its wing that has an aerofoil shaped will create lift. this gives the lift for the airplane and to fly. for helicopters, instead of the aerofoil is fix like an airplane, the aerofoil wing is rotating and create lift. that is why the helicopter does not need to move forward to gain momentum to create lift. by rotating the aerofoil (the blade) the helicopter can creates enough lift to lift up the helicopter.and that's how it fly..
What creates the lift that allows gliders to fly?
Unequal Pressure The aircraft's wing is shaped so that the air passing over the wing moves faster than the air under the wing causing a positive pressure differential, thus creating lift. In simpler terms, it is the air moving above the wing, not below the wing, that causes lift.
What four things make an airplane fly?
Thrust, lift, gravity, and drag
Do paper planes fly longer with a wide wingspan?
Sort of a wider wing span creates more lift but also creates more drag the shape of the wing is also a factor
Can airplanes fly without air?
No, the air is what allows for lift. The only way an airplane can "fly" without air is if the downward force of gravity didn't exist.
What does the difference in air presssure above and below a birds wing cause?
The difference in air pressure above and below a wing causes lift. The lift creates flight. The result is that birds fly.
Does heat make things fly?
no it weighs things down . Hot air tends to lift things, as in a hot air balloon.
What has the evolution of flight allows insects do?
Insects fly by air aerodynamics lift,thrust,drag,gravity! Sheesh use your brains!
Why paper airplane fly?
The forward motion (when you throw it) and the design of the craft - creates lift under the wing. As the forward motion slows, the aircraft falls to the ground.
What makes air planes fly?
Lift and speed are the two major things that makes an airplane fly. When enough speed is created to push enough air under the wings, the craft will lift off the ground.
