Why do helicopters always have a set of two blades?

Helicopters have 2 sets of blades to keep the helicopter balanced. This is due to the unique shape of the helicopter.


What is a two bladed helicopter called?

It is still just a helicopter regardless of number of blades.


Another name for helicopter propelers?

Main rotor and tail rotor. The main rotor is on top of the helicopter consisting of two or more blades, and the tail rotor is at the back of the helicopter, which also consists of two or more blades.


What did the helicopter look like?

A helicopter has two blades on the top of the body. The body is an oval sort of shape. It also has a long tail on the back to keep the helicopter balanced. LOLZ I hope you got the ANSWER you where looking for!!!


How does a Helicopter take off?

A helicopter is an aircraft that is lifted and propelled by one or more horizontal rotors, each rotor consisting of two or more rotor blades. Helicopters are classified as rotorcraft or rotary-wing aircraft to distinguish them from fixed-wing aircraft because the helicopter achieves lift with the rotor blades which rotate around a mast. A helicopter takes off vertically by using a set of blades shaped like aerofoils to generate lift by rotating the blades at high speed and as such does not require runways


How many wings does a helicopter have?

Helicopters do not have any wings. Airplanes have wings Helicopter has rotors. A helicopter has at least two sets of rotors. One rotor creates lift ( Main Rotor on the top ) & the other prevents the helicopter from spinning in circles( Tail Rotor).


How does the helicopter stay stationary in the air?

Two things keep a helicopter flying, and another keeps it flying straight. To take off: 1) The blades are shaped like the wings of an airplane and create a difference in pressure (high underneath the wing, low above). This difference in pressure "pushes" the helicopter upwards (lift). But because of gravity, however, there might not be enough lift to take off from the ground. 2) In order to take off, the blades must rotate at supersonic speeds (to be stronger than gravity's push downwards), this make it possible to gain altitude. To "Fly:" 1) A helicopter's blades in air act like a boat's propeller in water. If the blades rotate at an angle, it will start moving. To make the helicopter hover, the blades must be perfectly straight up. At the same time, the rotating blades make the helicopter itself rotate the other way (about the axis of rotation). In a GPS, the helicopter would not be going anywhere like this (with no angle on the blades), but the Direction at which it is looking will be changing in circles 2) Helicopters need a way to fix this crazy-out-of-control spinning. They can use a tail rotor for this, but they can also use a "twin" set of blades that rotate in opposite directions (counter-rotating blades). With the addition of counter-spinning blades, now the GPS will be pointing at 1 direction. in summary: 1) By keeping the blades rotating fast enough to be lifting with the same force as gravity is pushing down, the altitude is kept the same. 2) By keeping the Blades from spinning at an angle, the Helicopter does not move to the sides. 3) By using a counter-rotating blades set, the helicopter is able to keep looking at one direction. with these 3 things, Helicopter are able to hover in air, and their GPS can be kept and a fixed height, at fixed position on a map, and at a fixed direction.


What is for two sets the set of all elements that are in either set?

That is called the UNION of the two sets.


Why there are 2 sets of blades in helicopter?

I will assume by "sets" you mean "pairs". The truth is, some helicopters only have one set. Some have two. Put very simply, the more blades you have, the more lift you can generate, and so the more hauling capacity you have. Eg the Chinook has TWO rotors, each with four blades. It's used to lift some very heavy objects (humvees, many personnel etc). Whereas a small R22 only has two blades, since it's not designed to be a cargo lifter. The Main rotor is generally the one that is the most forward and creates most of the lift and general directional control (forward, back, left and right banks) Where as the tail rotor provides for a counter force to the torque created by the main rotor and also give you the ability to do what is called a balanced turn (means you won't feel like you're sliding through the air)


What is it when you have all the elements in two or more sets?

The set of elements that are elements of the two (or more) given sets is called the intersection of the sets.


What is interseting set?

I presume you mean intersecting. Two sets are intersecting if they have members in common. The set of members common to two (or more) sets is called the intersection of those sets. If two sets have no members in common, their intersection is the empty set. In this case the sets are called disjoint.


Why do helicopters always have two sets of blades?

The upper set, the rotor, provides lift. The smaller blade at the rear provides steering .
