Drag can be reduced by flying at higher altitudes, where the air is thinner. Drag increases with speed as well, and some friction is unavoidable when generating lift.
To reduce drag in design, the exterior should be as smooth as possible, and external protrusions should be faired into the body, creating the smallest possible cross section as seen from the nose (direction of motion).
What else can I help you with?
In which way you change by taskbar on the left?
drag it
Explain tow different ways to change the drag on the plane?
One way to change the drag on a plane is by adjusting the flap settings. Extending flaps increases drag, while retracting them reduces drag. Another way is by changing the pitch attitude of the aircraft - a higher angle of attack increases drag, while a lower angle of attack decreases it.
What is the force that pulls an airplane back?
the answer to this question is pull it is the opposite to push.push is the force that makes it go forward and pull is the force to bring you back...go liverpuddlians:):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):)
Why does an airplane look the way it looks?
Because that how it needs to look to function well. Air drag, lift, passenger/cargo space, engines etc.
Role of technology of World War 1?
Many weapons were developed. One was the tank and the airplane . Both of these would change the way the war was fought.
How is a paper plane affected by its shape?
A paper airplane is affected by its shape in just about every way. Drag, efficiency and performance are all affected by the aircraft's shape.
Why does a heavier paper airplane fly further than a lighter paper airplane?
The answer to this question is a matter of some fairly simple physics which I will try to explain to you. First, you need to understand that most paper airplanes are not really airplanes. Airplanes fly because the shape of the wing produces lift; paper airplanes mostly fly as projectiles, meaning that they fly because you throw them. The first reason that the lighter airplane might not fly as far is in the design. Typically, the lighter paper airplane will have larger wings, and therefore, more drag. Since it is virtually impossible to make the paper airplane perfectly symmetrical, one of the wings has more drag which causes the airplane to spin and crash short of its maximum possible distance. The second reason is also related to the design. If you have a light airplane with more drag and a heavy airplane with less drag, the heavy airplane can fly much more easily. This is because the heavier airplane has less drag as well as more momentum to "push" through the air. On this note, a piece of paper crumpled into a ball will fly further than most paper airplanes I have seen just because is has lots of mass for the level of drag it induces. The crumpled piece of paper also will probably fly much straighter that the paper airplane too, just because it is fairly uniform in shape. At this point, we are completely ignoring lift; but at such a small scale with such light material, it works better that way due to the reasons above. Of course, if you put engines and control surfaces on the paper structure, you change the game entirely. Now it has to fly with lift instead of as a projectile otherwise it will crash because it has no control. This explains why real airplanes are not just big balls of metal.

How did the invention change the way people lived?
the inventions i like to talk about is the telephone and airplane. the telephone was built by Alexander graham bell for the deaf and the airplane was built by olive and Wilbur to travel across the world.
