What part of a plane adjusts the curvature of the wings in order to create lift?

That would be the flaps. There are flaps on the trailing edge of a wing on most aircraft and there can also be leading edge flaps as well, often seen on the big airliners. These flaps will be lowered and will effectively increase the curvature of the wing, allowing it fly at higher angles of attack for greater lift. It also produces greater drag, useful for dropping altitude without speeding up and flying slow on approach to landing.

Which anatomical plane does lordosis occur?
Lordosis is a spinal curvature in the median plane with an posterior concavity.
What is the center of curvature of a mirror?
A plane mirror is not curved so it does not have a center of curvature. Or if you want to be mathematically correct, you could say that it's center of curvature is at an infinite distance from the mirror.
How can a spherical mirror become a plane mirror?
By increasing its radius of curvature to infinity.
True or false the center of curvature of a plane mirror is at infinity?
Plane mirrors don't have one, I'd say it was 0.
What is the center of curvature of a plane mirror?
A plane mirror is not curved so it does not have a center of curvature. Or if you want to be mathematically correct, you could say that it's center of curvature is at an infinite distance from the mirror.
Are lines on a sphere in the same plane?
Not necessarily. A plane dissecting a sphere would create a circle in that plane. so in order for the "line" to be both on the plane and the sphere the line would have to be a curve or segment of a circle.
An air plane can fly because there is blank on its wings?
"blank on" = greater convex curvature on the upper surface of
What is the angular distance of the horizon below the plane of observation caused by the curvature of the earths surface called?
DIP
What is another name for a plane in geometry?
Not sure about a name, but "an infinite surface with zero curvature" is an equivalent phrase.
How does a plane look like in math terms?
An infinite flat surface, or an infinite surface with zero curvature.
What has the author Geert Remmert Veldkamp written?
Geert Remmert Veldkamp has written: 'Curvature theory in plane kinematics' -- subject(s): Kinematic geometry, Kinematics, Plane Curves
How many non-collinear points are needed to create a plane?
To create a plane, infinitely many. To uniquely determine a plane, just three.
