What is an aircraft flap called?
An aircraft flap is simply called a "flap." Flaps are movable surfaces located on the wings of an aircraft. They are designed to change the shape and configuration of the wing during different phases of flight. By extending or retracting the flaps, pilots can adjust the lift and drag characteristics of the aircraft, allowing for changes in speed, angle of descent, and takeoff and landing capabilities. Flaps can be divided into several types, including: Plain Flaps: These are the simplest type of flaps, which extend straight down from the wing when deployed. Split Flaps: These flaps are divided into two sections, with the lower section extending downward and the upper section remaining in place. Slotted Flaps: Slotted flaps have a slot or gap between the wing and the flap, which helps to increase lift at lower speeds. Fowler Flaps: Fowler flaps extend backward and downward, increasing both the wing area and camber, which allows for greater lift generation. The specific type of flap used on an aircraft depends on its design and intended purpose. Flaps play a crucial role in controlling and maneuvering an aircraft, particularly during takeoff and landing.
Which muscles attach to the greater trochanter?
The muscles that attach to the greater trochanter are the gluteus medius and gluteus minimus.
Which organs does the greater omentum attach?
The greater omentum attaches to the stomach and covers the intestines in the abdominal cavity. It plays a role in protecting and isolating organs in the abdomen against infection and injury.
What attaches to the greater trochanter in the human body?
The gluteus medius and minimus muscles attach to the greater trochanter in the human body.
Is the greater trochanter a lateral or a medial structure of the femur?
The greater trochanter is a lateral structure of the femur.
What is the landing speed of fighter jet on an aircraft carrier?
"The landing system on an aircraft carrier can stop a 54,000 pound airplane traveling at 150 mph in two seconds." Also, the aircraft carrier is often moving away from the landing aircraft (allowing a greater true air speed for the landing airplane.) Suppose the aircraft carrier is going 15 mph, then the 54,000 pound aircraft can land at a true airspeed of 165 mph.
Is the Oasis of the Seas larger than a us navy aircraft carrier?
The Oasis of the Seas is longer than the USS Enterprise. and it weighs more and in general has greater statistics than any aircraft carrier afloat aside from top speed.
What is the maximum size and weight of a aircraft carrier or battleship or any sea vessel can weigh to still be able to float in the ocean?
There is no maximum theoretically. As long as the weight of the water being displaced is greater than the weight of the ship itself, it will float. That's why a 1 pound steel ball sinks, but a 90,000 ton aircraft carrier made out of the same material floats.
Why do aircraft carriers float in water if they are made of materials that have a greater density than water?
Archimedes put it that "Any object, wholly or partially immersed in a fluid, is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid that is displaced by the object."So our aircraft carrier will only displace a volume of water equal to the weight of the ship. But the volume of the ship is much greater than that volume of water. So it floats.
Which encounters the greater force of air resistance a falling elephant or a falling feather?
A falling elephant encounters a greater force of air resistance than a falling feather does. The force of air resistance can't be greater than the weight of the falling object. When the force of air resistance is equal to the weight of the falling object, the object stops accelerating, its falling speed becomes constant, and the force of air resistance doesn't get any bigger. So the force of air resistance against a falling feather can't be greater than the weight of the feather. But the force of air resistance against a falling elephant can be, and undoubtedly is, greater than the weight of a feather.
What does the weight of the airplane have to do with the lift of it?
The weight of an aircraft counteracts the lift produced by an aircraft. The heavier an aircraft weighs the greater the lift needed to get off the ground.
Was the Bismarck the best ship in world war 2?
To the British yes, because the "greater the foe, the greater the glory." In reality, the greatest ship in WWII was the US Navy aircraft carrier USS Enterprise (CV6). She was the most decorated US warship in history and was far more powerful than any battleship.
Which aircraft engine has greater thrust B747 or B777?
The Boeing 777.
Will a carrier that undergoes over modulation occupy a greater or a lesser bandwidth than a carrier which is 80 percent modulated?
Overmodulation always produces a greater occupied bandwidth, unless you do some serious filtering before it gets out.
When a helicopter is on the ground can it leak fuel?
That is possible but no greater than in any aircraft.
Where is the Greater Boston Chapter 106 Of The Experimental Aircraft Asso in Wenham Massachusetts located?
The address of the Greater Boston Chapter 106 Of The Experimental Aircraft Asso is: 10 Patch Ave, Wenham, MA 01983-0620
What happens when thrust is greater than drag?
When thrust is greater than drag, the aircraft will accelerate and increase its speed. This will lead to a climb in altitude or a change in direction due to the increased force pushing the aircraft forward.
