A plane traveling at a constant speed is able to travel 750 miles in 5 hours How fast is the plane flying?
150 MPH
Why do planes have flaps on the wings?
Airplane wings are designed to be most efficient when at high altitudes, traveling fast, while providing as little drag as possible. Unfortunately this design inst the best for takeoff and landing. Flaps are used to change the shape of the wing to accommodate takeoff and landing requirements. Most planes have flaps on the front of the wings (leading edge flaps) and at the back of the wings. During takeoff flaps increase lift so a plane can take off with limited runway length and lower speeds. As the plane gains speed the flaps are retracted. On approach and landing you want to fly as slow as possible so the flaps are deployed in increments till landing speed is achieved. Landing slower means less runway needed to stop.
Why do flight attendants ask passengers in a plane to shut the window during take off and landing?
They only ask you to put up your tray tables and your seats in the verticle position. Windows do not open on planes anyway, as the plane goes very high and very fast and if the windows opened, people would get sucked out of the plane.
How fast does an airliner fly when it's landing?
An approach (landing) speed is determined by the type of plane, weight, weather and the condition of the runway. A heavy 747-400 might have a landing speed of 160 KIAS (knots indicated air speed) or about 185 mph.
How many hours does it take for 9046 Km 5621 miles with an airplane?
This cannot be answered unless you know how fast the plane is traveling.
How fast is the average speed of a passenger plane during flight?
The average speed of a passenger plane during flight is around 500 to 600 miles per hour.
How fast does a f-16 fighter jet go while landing on a ship?
A F-16 cannot land on a ship: it has no landing restraining hook to catch the cable and the landing gear are so light they would all collapse causing the plane to crash on the deck. Naval aircraft landing on a carrier MUST come down full afterburner emergency thrust until the pilot feels the cable grab the plane, then he must kill his engines completely to avoid snapping the cable.
Does a plane have to fly faster to fly higher?
The answer to this one is no. Yes a plane does have to be traveling at a certain speed in order to lift into the air. But as long as the aircraft maintains that speed it can either climb or descend. The speed merely determines how fast it climbs.
A plane traveling at a constant speed is able to travel 600 miles in 5 hours How fast was the plane flying?
A plane which has travelled 600 miles in 5 hours was travelling at a speed of 120 miles per hour.Speed = Distance / TimeTherefore the speed of the plane = 600 / 5 = 120.120 miles per hour
How fast can a plane stop?
it depends on the plane
Max speed of FA 18 landing on a aircraft carrier?
There really isn't a max speed of an F/A-18 landing on an aircraft carrier because: (skip to the bottom for the general and quick answer which is just a guess) 1) If the aircraft was going too fast, the tail hook would break upon hooking onto the wires 2) If the aircraft was going too fast, the wires the plane uses to stop would snap when the tail hook hooked them at a high speed 3)If the aircraft was flying over a speed of 240 knots (nautical miles per hour) the planes landing gear and flaps would automtically retract 4) The perfered speed to land (or the speed you should be traveling if you are doing everything right) should be 135 knots 5)If you were going too fast, the Landing Signal Officer (or LSO) would tell you to wave off (or abort the current landing pattern and realign for a new landing) So if there had to be a max speed to land on a carrier I'd say it would probably be about 150-160 knots
How does an Air Force U2 plane land?
They land by using regular plane controlles but two super charged fast trucks have to chase after the U2 spy plane because they need to put the landing gears on it to touch the ground and land safley cause without the gears the U2 spy plane has 2 gears on the front and back and if it touches down it will tilt and the wing will scrap against the tarmac.
