How do airplanes take flight?
They increase speed until the wings gain 'lift' from the air flowing over them.
How airplanes can fly in air in spite of being heavier than air?
Airplanes are designed to generate lift through the shape of their wings and the speed at which they move through the air. This lift force is created by the pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces of the wings. By generating enough lift, airplanes can overcome gravity and stay airborne even though they are heavier than air.
Can a airplane fly without wings?
No, airplanes need wings for lift. - Now having said that, aircraft can fly without wings, as they include helicopters, dirigibles and balloons which have alternate ways of gaining lift.
How do airplanes fly with so much weight?
The lift produced by the wings is greater than the weight.
What causes loss of lift for airplanes?
There are a lot of factors that can cause the loss of lift in an aircraft, such as changing the shape of the airfoil, changing the speed, a change in air temperature which causes a change in air density, etc.
What do flaps help an airplane do?
An airplanes having the flaps in wings as it helps the plane to give or to produce a additional lift.
Can airplane fly without an air?
No. Airplanes need the flow of air over the wings in order to produce lift.
How do airplanes fly when they are heavier than air?
Airplanes generate lift using their wings, which creates a pressure difference that causes the plane to rise. This lift force is greater than the force of gravity acting on the plane, allowing it to stay airborne. The engines provide thrust to propel the plane forward, overcoming drag and allowing it to maintain flight.
How are old airplanes similar to new airplanes?
Old Airplanes and new are similar because they work under the same principles. Creating enough lift to become airbourne. To do so a plane needs to be light enough with enough thrust and enough surface area of the wings to create the lift
Why do paper airplanes fly?
Paper airplanes fly due to the principles of aerodynamics. When a paper airplane is thrown, the shape of its wings and the angle at which it is thrown create lift, which allows the airplane to stay in the air and glide. The force of gravity pulling the airplane down is counteracted by the lift generated by the wings, allowing the airplane to fly.
Why do airplanes have 2 wings?
You have to balance out the lift, or else you'll have lift on just one side of the aircraft, and it'll be compelled to flip onto the side without a wing.
Can airplanes lift off in the rain?
They could, if it wasn't in the severe category
