Propellers generate thrust by converting rotational energy into forward motion, which helps lift the airplane. As the propeller spins, it creates a pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces of the wings, contributing to lift. If the thrust generated by the propellers is sufficient to overcome gravity, the airplane can climb to a higher altitude. Conversely, if thrust decreases or drag increases significantly, the airplane may struggle to maintain or gain altitude.
What else can I help you with?
What are the different numbers of propellers an airplane can have?
Some airplanes have had up to 8 propellers.
Do airplanes have to have propellers to work?
No. Gliders, jets and rocket-propelled aircraft do not have propellers.
Where is the rotor on an airplane?
Helicopters have rotors airplanes have propellers
Does an airplane have a propeller?
Yes, some airplanes have propellers.
How do ailerons affect an airplanes attitude?
ailerons bank (turn) an airplane left or right. the only change in altitude. the elevators (witch are located on the rear of a plane) changes your altitude
How do propellers affect thrust?
that is a fine answer
Are there stick shifts in airplanes?
No, they aren't needed because the few airplanes with geared propellers have single-speed gearboxes. Most aircraft either directly drive the prop off the engine's crankshaft, or they use jet engines which power the plane without propellers.
What has the author Graham Robson written?
Graham Robson has written: 'Prop perfection' -- subject(s): Aerial Propellers, Airplanes, Conservation and restoration, Maintenance and repair, Propellers, Aerial
How do ailerons affect the airplanes altitude?
If the elevators are up, then the plain goes up but if they are down, the plane goes down.
Who put propellers on the airplanes in World War 1?
The aircraft mechanics usually put propellors on.
Do some airplanes only have one propeller?
Some have 1 and many others have 2 or even 4 propellers.
What are the changes they made on airplanes?
Before, airplanes were more mauneverable and faster, they were hard to control and very slow. Before the planes were powered by jet engines and turbofans, they were powered by propellers.
