Best Answer

The landing gear is retracted after take-off. This is because, when the plane is flying at great speed the landing gear produces a lot of drag. This slows the plane down. So the landing gears are retracted.

How gyroscopic couple work in a aroplanes and ship?

Effect of the Gyroscopic Couple on an ship and Aeroplane :-Ships and aeroplanes consist of large moment of inertia propeller and fly wheels. When aeroplane or ship takes right or left turn there occurs a rate of change of angular momentum because of change of direction of angular momentum vector. Thus a counter couple is produced when they terns.When the engine or propeller of aeroplane or fly wheel of ship rotate such that the spin angular momentum vector is along the sailing direction and when the aeroplane or ship takes a left turn, then the effect of reactive gyroscopic couple will be to dip the nose (stem: for ship) and raise the tail of the aeroplane or ship.When the aeroplane or ship takes a right turn under similar conditions above, the effect of reactive gyroscopic couple will be to raise the nose and dip the tail of the aeroplane or ship.In the case of ships the fly wheel must be mounded such that the spin axis is along the length so as to maintain dynamic stability.

How does larger skateboard wheels make you go faster?

Wheels dont make skateboards faster its the bearings that make the wheels move.but if your looking for wheels that wont waste fast than i would gets some bones wheels that what i ride and there the best wheels if used so. BEARINGS they are the things inside the wheels that make them move HOW TO FIND THE FASTEST BEARINGS there is a scale from 1 to 10 the higher the number the faster they go so if i were you i would get some 8's or 9's
