How long would it take to get to Jupiter by plane?
A plane could not fly to Jupiter because planes need air to fly in and there is no air in the space between ?Earth and Jupiter.
How does air pressure affect lift on a kite?
They can both fly
How do bald eagles fly besides just flapping their wings?
they flap their wings, making thrust and fly. then they spread their wings and gluide. the air moves faster on the top (less pressure) and the bottom of it's body, the air moves slow (high pressure). the high pressure lifts the eagle up.It angles its wings
If a pilot flies an airplane eastbound into a jet stream what will she experience?
A jet stream is a region of strong winds high in the atmosphere where planes fly. If she flies a plane into this region, the plane will be accelerated. This will allow her to either fly faster, or fly at the same speed using less fuel.
Do geese really fly higher when the weather is foul?
Yes, there is less moisture in the higher air, making it easier to fly.
Why do jets fly at the altitude they do?
It is because the higher up the plane is, the lower the air pressure. When the air pressure is lower, there are less air molecules, resulting in less friction. Therefore it uses less fuel.
Why are the wheels on the plane tucked in after take off?
If they were left out the plane would become less aerodynamic; it would take more fuel to go the same distance and speed.It is also because the height at which planes fly have less air pressure as we know air travels from high pressure to low pressure the air inside the wheels comes and the wheel burst out
How do paper planes fly?
Paper airplanes fly because of the velocity and air pressure on either sides of the wings. Air is also pushed to the bottom upward to the plane.
Would it be easier for a plane to fly higher in an atmosphere less dense than Earths?
i No, ;it would be easier in denser air. Less dense air gives nothing for the wings of the plane to use to propel itself upwards. Less dense air would make the plane crash.
How do the nose and wings of a paper plane affect its flight?
It cuts the air evenly and builds the pressure to fly.
How do aeroplanes fly even though there airfoils cant flap like birds wings?
The different air pressure above and below the wings creates lift and allows the 'plane to fly given enough forward motion.The different air pressure above and below the wings creates lift and allows the 'plane to fly given enough forward motion.
What is a weather lore for barometric pressure?
"If birds fly lowExpect rain and a blow."When the air pressure is high, it is easier for birds to fly at a higher altitude. If the air pressure is low, indicating bad weather, birds can't fly as high because the air is less dense. The barometer measures air pressure.
What make a plane fly?
The first thing that makes an airplane fly is air or aerodynamics, but simply its because the thin shape of a paper airplane makes it cut through the air, along with the air's resistance, which hardly effects it.Secondly, drag and gravity. Drag means how much air is pushed by the movement of of the plane. Gravity is the pull downward toward the middle of the Earth, the less weight the effects your plane.Next is thrust and lift. Thrust is the forward force of the paper plane. At first, you give it thrust by using your muscles on your arm to launch the plane. After that the plane depends on converting altitude into forward motion, or gliding.Lift is when the air below the wing is pushing upward harder than the air above it, is pushing down. The difference in pressure is what makes the plane fly. The faster the air moves over the surface of the plane, the less pressure there is.Combining and balance all these forces for long paper airplane flights.
Fly the plane or drive the plane?
Both - you fly it in the air, but you drive it on the ground.
When did the wright brothers make the first plane to fly in the air?
They made the first plane to fly in air in 1903.
Why is high air pressure near earths surface?
Because there is more air (which has weight) above you if you are around sea level. If you fly up, or climb a mountain, there is less air above you, therefore less air pressure.
How does air make an airplane work?
Air will help it fly, without air it cannot fly The wing must have air to fly. As the wing passes through the air at a sufficiently high speed, a pressure difference is created between the top of the wing and the bottom. Pressure on the top is lower than the pressure on the bottom. The airplane is actually sucked into the sky. The control surfaces also require the passage of sufficient amounts of air in order to be effective. Without air, the plane's engine wouldn't work. But even if it (engine) did work, the plane still wouldn't fly. The engine would have no air to interact with, to develop thrust, and the wing would have no air to create the required pressure difference.
