How does the drag affect the forward motion of the airplane?
Drag slows the forward movement of aircraft.
Rockets are launched from an airplane in the forward direction of motion The kinetic energy of the airplane will be?
ANSWER:There kinetic energy of the airplane will be deceased
What are two forces that resist the forward motion of a bus?
two forces that can stop the forward motion are, air resistance and friction.
What is a force that opposes motion of an object is called?
resistance (friction)
What is the force called that opposes motion?
It is friction. In air, it can also be called air resistance. Similarly, in water, it can also be called water resistance.
How physics affects flying?
gravity holds you down wings + forward motion = lift thrust = forward motion air resistance = resistance to forward motion thin air at altitude is easier and cheaper to get through

What is the resistance to motion?
resistance to motion is called inertia
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.
Do swim costumes reduce resistance and drag in the water?
resistance created by a fluid to forward motion. The resistance met by a swimmer in their forward progress caused by the water is passive drag;
How are lift and thrust use in airplane?
Thrust is used to make it roll forward. This forward motion causes lift at the wings.
Is the upward force on a airplane wing is thrust?
Thrust is the forward motion of the airplane provided by the engines. Lift is the upward force on an airplanes wing.
How does aerodynamics help you save gas?
By lowering the automobile's wind resistance to its forward motion
What is a aeroplanes drag?
Drag is simply an external force that affects the motion of airplanes and offers resistance to the motion of the plane.Drag force of a flying plane is compensated by the weight of the plane and the the the forward motion.

What is drag in an aircraft?
In aircraft aerodynamics, drag is the force that opposes forward motion, caused by air resistance as the aircraft is pushed forward by it's engines.
