How does an airplane take off the ground?
he engine is accelerared and the airplane moves down the runway gaining sped. When speed is high enough, 'lift' is created around the wings and it lifts off the ground.
What happens when an airplane takes off against the wind?
It then produces lift due to wing configuration and can take off
How much horsepower does it take to lift the front off the ground on 72 Nova?
around 400
How much torque does it take to lift the front of a car off the ground?
Alot of power 500+ hp
What is the use of flaps in airplanes?
Flaps increase the aerodynamic lift of a wing by increasing it's surface area. This allows the airplane to generate a greater amount of lift at slower speeds. In other words, when the flaps are extended, the airplane doesn't have to go as fast in order to take off or land. The flaps are retracted once the airplane is off the ground and has increased its speed to a point where the extra lift from the flaps is no longer needed. Flaps also have the effect of increasing drag on the airplane wing which reduces the airplane's speed and efficiency, but this only affects the aircraft when operating at higher speeds.
What is Landspeed of a airplane at take off?
This varies greatly from airplane to airplane, as well as according to ground wind conditions. Keep in mind that landspeed does not matter to an airplane nearly as much as AIRspeed. For example, your typical 4-seater single engine airplane takes off at around 60mph airspeed. Given a 20mph headwind, this aircraft could take off at 40mph GROUND speed. If you are interested in how fast the ground is wizzing by when youre looking out the window of the airliner. Most airliners take off at around 150 to 180 mph AIRspeed.
How does an airplane take off?
During takeoff, an airplane's engines produce thrust, pushing the aircraft forward. As the speed increases, air flows over the wings, creating lift. When there is enough lift to overcome the aircraft's weight, it becomes airborne. The pilot then guides the plane into the sky.
Why does an airplane need more lift then weight?
Obviously so it can overcome gravity and take off.
How MPH does an airplane go when it takes off?
No one airplane, no one answer. Depends on the weight of the airplane and the size of the wings. Light planes designed for short take offs may lift off at 30 mph. A Boeing 737 jet might lift at 150 mph.
Which flies paper airplane or foil airplane?
Paper, because it is much lighter, and a foil airplane will take up much more mass.
What is the dfference between lift and drag?
drag you pull across the ground lift you pick up and take around
How long does it take an airplane to get off the ground?
Depends on the aircraft, and the velocity of the air over the wings that produces enough lift to get the aircraft into the air. For aircraft that are STOL capable (Short Take Off and Landing) this time will be short, but ultimately it depends on the wind conditions, and the thrust of the aircraft. VTOL (Vertical Take Off and Landing) aircraft can take off instantaneously. There are too many variables to give a short answer, as stated above, but as an example, a fully loaded modern day commercial airliner like the Boeing 767-400 might have a take-off run of 9000' to 9500' before the main landing gear actually lifted off the ground.
