What causes prop wash?

Prop wash is caused by a passing propeller driven aircraft. The spinning prop creates a vortex like wind that can be quite violent.


Does the length of a propeller affect the speed at which a plane travels?

Both the length and the rpm of the prop affect the speed of the aircraft. Larger, slower turning props are more efficient at the speeds at which most prop aircraft operate. If the tip speed of a prop exceeds the sound barrier, a prop will suddenly loose a large part of its thrust. The loud crackling noise you hear on takeoff is not the engine, but the prop tips nibbling at the sound barrier. DAN Both the length and the rpm of the prop affect the speed of the aircraft.

What is the difference of relative density and density?

DENSITY : density is the ratio of mass and volume of the substance density=mass/volume RELATIVE DENSITY : It is the ratio of density of a substance to the density of water


How do airplanes generate thrust?

With an engine--either prop or jet.


If the relative density of gold is 19.3 what would be its density?

relative density is related to the density of water. i.e. a relative density of 19.3 means that it has a density 19.3 times the density of water. The density of water is 1g/ml therefore the density of gold is 19.3g/ml
