What else can I help you with?
What part of a plane is referred to an airfoil?
The shape of an airplane's wing is called the airfoil; this helps the plane to fly easily while in flight.
What happens if you forget to turn your phone on airplane mode while on a plane?
Forgetting to turn your phone on airplane mode while on a plane can potentially interfere with the aircraft's communication and navigation systems. This interference can disrupt the pilot's ability to communicate with air traffic control and may cause interference with the plane's instruments. It is important to follow airline regulations and turn on airplane mode to prevent any potential issues during the flight.
How high above sea level is an airplane while in flight?
As high as it says on the altimeter. It changes constantly while in flight.
If there is a bag of chips on airplane why does it puff up while in flight?
Air pressure.
Why must lift be equal to the force of gravity on an airplane?
For an airplane to maintain level flight, the lift force generated by the wings must equal the force of gravity acting on the airplane. This balance ensures that the airplane neither climbs nor descends while in flight.
Is an airplane external force?
Yes, an airplane is subject to external forces such as lift, weight, thrust, and drag while flying. These external forces are crucial for the airplane to maintain its flight.
When you're going to a country and it takes over a night does the pilot of the airplane sleep?
In intercontinental flights, most airlines have two crew's on a single flight, therefore one crew can sleep, while the other flies the plane.
What is the first plane?
The airplane, Wright Flyer I was the first manned aircraft to truly fly. It flew in Kitty Hawk for 12 seconds over 120ft. It was made and tested by the Wright Brother's. Orville flew the plane, while Wilbur ran alongside, as shown in the famous picture of the first flight.
How does a flight take off in air?
The airplane is designed to be exceptionally aerodynamic and to push air over the wings in a specific pattern. When the plane accelerates down the runway, the air pressure on top of the wings drops while the air pressure under the wings increases - at some point (preferably before the end of the runway is reached), the differential air pressure lifts the airplane off the ground and the plane is airborne.
Do you need a driver's license to board a plane to Canada?
...Not unless you plan to drive a car around the airplane. You require a passport to board a plane for an international flight enterfing Canada. If you plan on driving while in Canada and do not have a Canadian driving licence you may be required to get an international licence depending where you are from and/or how long you will be in Canada.
What happens when you mess up a part while fixing an airplane?
The part wont fit, or the plane wont work.
What statement is true about an airplane during flight?
During flight, an airplane is subject to four primary forces: lift, weight, thrust, and drag. Lift, generated by the wings, opposes the weight of the airplane, while thrust produced by the engines counters drag, which resists forward motion. For stable flight, these forces must be balanced appropriately, allowing the aircraft to maintain altitude and speed. Additionally, the design and aerodynamics of the airplane play a crucial role in its flight efficiency and performance.
