Most depressurization effects you see in the movies are just Hollywood effects - two minor problems occur, one is thrust from escaping air and the other is a change in airflow from whatever opening created the depressurization - the real problem is not the aircraft but the pilot and passengers - pressurization allows people to breathe a normal amount of oxygen - sudden depressurization can cause severe lack of oxygen and eventual loss of consciousness - therefore the pilots may not be able to adequately control the aircraft - of course it really depends on how badly the aircraft was damaged - if pressure loss is due to losing the tail section that's bad but its more than just losing pressure.
AnswerSudden depressurization, more commonly known as explosive decompression, will not affect the controllability of the aircraft other than, perhaps, through the effects of the rapid depressurization itself. In other words, while there could be some physical disruption of controllability caused by debris flying about the cabin, or possibly structural damage to the airframe resulting from whatever caused the decompression in the first place, once the pressurization has equalized, the aircraft will continue to function as advertised.A classic example of this is the Aloha Airlines 737 that lost the forward part of the fuselage due to a stress fracture, it experienced a rapid decompression at 24,000 feet, and went on to make a safe landing. See the link to pictures below.
What else can I help you with?
What are the time periods that determine slow vs rapid depressurization?
A rapid depressurization typically occurs within seconds, while a slow depressurization takes longer, typically minutes or even hours. Rapid depressurization is usually associated with sudden events like a rupture or explosion, while slow depressurization can happen due to gradual leaks or failures in the system.
The sudden massave attacks of tanks and airplanes used by German?
The word for this sort of attack is :- blitzkrieg
What happens to you if you are sucked out of a plane during decompression?
If you are sucked out of a plane during decompression, you would likely experience a sudden drop in air pressure and temperature, leading to rapid loss of consciousness due to hypoxia and asphyxiation. The extreme conditions at high altitudes would make survival highly unlikely.
What is labilities?
In cellular systems this refers to a cell that is constantly dividing. In human psychology it refers to sudden changes in emotions and emotional intensity (unstable).
Do we wear seat belts in cars and airplanes to protect ourselves from speed or from acceleration?
We wear seat belts in cars and airplanes to protect ourselves from sudden stops due to acceleration or deceleration. Seat belts help restrain passengers and prevent them from being thrown forward in the event of a collision or sudden braking. Speed itself is not necessarily a direct hazard when it comes to seat belt use, but the sudden changes in motion caused by speed can pose a risk.
Why Boeing 737 had Sudden shake?
I am not sure about the exact situation but it may be "Turbulence" which is the result of the plane flying through an area of unstable air causing the aircraft to shake.
What is unstable crack growth?
Unstable crack growth refers to the sudden and rapid increase in the length of a crack in a material under stress. This rapid propagation can lead to catastrophic failure of the material if not addressed promptly, making it a critical concern in understanding and managing structural integrity. It is typically characterized by a combination of high crack growth rates and unstable fracture behavior.
What is bump-less transfer?
In an automated process-control system, bumpless transfer is a feature that prevents a sudden response by the controller when switching from manual mode to automatic mode. In the simplest implementation, bumpless transfer changes the controller's setpoint (SP) for a parameter to the present value (PV) when automatic mode is engaged. This ensures that the controller does not react to a sudden large error value (E), which might cause it to overshoot the setpoint or become unstable.
The sudden massive attacks o tanks ans airplanes used by Germany during world war 2?
Called combined arms today; back then they titled it a lightning war.
When you split an atom why does it explode?
When an atom is split, a large amount of energy is released in the form of heat and radiation. This sudden release of energy causes a rapid expansion of gases and materials around the atom, leading to an explosion. This process is known as nuclear fission and is the basis for nuclear weapons and reactors.
Can you take birth control if its old?
You can, but you probably shouldn't. They can cause you to become very sick all of a sudden.
How do friends start?
Friends start by you starting to hang out and than all of a sudden you will become really good friends.
