What else can I help you with?
Can you see the curvature of the Earth from a plane?
Yes, you can see the curvature of the Earth from a plane when flying at a high altitude, typically above 35,000 feet.
What is the plane surface of the earth?
The plane surface of the Earth refers to a flat representation of the planet's surface without considering its curvature. It is often used in cartography to create maps and projections for easier visualization and measurement. However, the Earth is actually a geoid, which means its surface is slightly curved due to its rotation and gravitational forces.
Autopilot on plane harmful to environment?
Autopilot on planes can actually help reduce fuel consumption and emissions by helping optimize flight routes and maintain a more consistent speed. By allowing for more precise flight control, autopilot can contribute to more efficient flights that minimize environmental impact.
What is earths equatorial plane?
Earth's equatorial plane is an imaginary plane that divides the Earth into two equal halves, creating the equator. It is perpendicular to the Earth's axis of rotation, which means it is horizontal in relation to the planet's poles.
Where is the vertical plane in earth?
A vertical plane is any plane where the normal (a line at 90 degrees to the plane) is horizontal. All your walls are vertical planes. The normal to the plane of the Earth's orbit is often used to define "up" and "down" for planet Earth. The Earth's axis is tilted at about 23.5 degrees away from this "vertical" line. Also you could define "vertical" as simply the direction shown by a plumb line. That's the definition which has walls as vertical planes. With either definition there will be more than one plane that is a vertical plane.
When a pilot flies a long distance flight - does the pilot have to descend the plane mid-flight to match the curvature of the Earth?
No. Level flight for an aircraft is not flight in a straight line (vertically) but one that follows the curvature of the earth. It is an arc that maintains the same altitude.
Can you see the curvature of the Earth from a plane?
Yes, you can see the curvature of the Earth from a plane when flying at a high altitude, typically above 35,000 feet.
What are the classification of surveying?
Surveying can be classified into two main categories: plane surveying and geodetic surveying. Plane surveying deals with small areas on the Earth's surface where the curvature of the Earth can be neglected. Geodetic surveying involves measuring large areas and taking into account the curvature of the Earth.
Shortest flight to earth?
get a private plane.
What is the angular distance of the horizon below the plane of observation caused by the curvature of the earths surface called?
The angular distance of the horizon below the plane of observation caused by the curvature of the Earth's surface is called the dip angle.
What is the difference between plane survey and geodetic survey?
Plain surveying means the survey in which earth surface is considered as to be flat or plain i.e. its curvature is ignored. Geodetic survey is the survey in which curvature of the earth is taken into count and then surveying is done.
What is the difference between plane flight and space flight?
space flight you go to outer space regualr flight flight you stay around earth
True or false the center of curvature of a plane mirror is at infinity?
Plane mirrors don't have one, I'd say it was 0.
Can you fire missiles on google earth flight simulator?
No Google Earth flight simulator does not fire missiles, bombs, etc. For that you can try X-Plane or Flight Simulator X.
Which anatomical plane does lordosis occur?
Lordosis is an exaggerated inward curvature of the lumbar spine, which primarily occurs in the sagittal plane. This means that when viewing the spine from the side, lordosis involves an increased concave curvature in the lumbar region.
What is the plane surface of the earth?
The plane surface of the Earth refers to a flat representation of the planet's surface without considering its curvature. It is often used in cartography to create maps and projections for easier visualization and measurement. However, the Earth is actually a geoid, which means its surface is slightly curved due to its rotation and gravitational forces.
What is the center of curvature of a plane mirror?
A plane mirror is not curved so it does not have a center of curvature. Or if you want to be mathematically correct, you could say that it's center of curvature is at an infinite distance from the mirror.
