No. Kites are not mammals - they are birds. The differences between birds and mammals are:
- Birds have feathers while mammals have fur, hair or skin
- Birds lay eggs whilst mammals (with the exception of the monotremes) bear live young
- Birds do not feed their young on mothers' milk like all mammals do
What else can I help you with?
Is a red kite a mammal?
no its a bird
Is the kite a mammal?
Kites are not mammals they are birds.
Does a kite has two sets of parallel lines?
Yes, plenty of delta wing 'power kites' do. each set of lines connects to a yoke to maneuver the kite.
Is a snail a insect bird fish or mammal?
A snail kite is a bird.
How does a kite become airborne using Bernoulli's Principle?
It becomes airborne when the air pressure on the top of the kite becomes less than the pressure on the bottom. A kite acts somewhat like a wing on an airplane. The bottom of the wing is flat and the top is slightly rounded or curved causing the air pressure to be greater on the bottom creating lift. For this to happen the plane must reach a certain speed. The same holds true for a kite.
Sailboat is to sail as?
Sailboat is to sail as kite is to fly, just as airplane is to wing and oil tanker is to engine.
How many shapes does dart flight has?
There are standard,kite,teardrop,sam,v-wing,vortex,lantern shapes
What are the aerodynamics of a kite?
The aerodynamics of a kite involve the interaction between the kite and the wind. When wind flows over the kite's surface, it generates lift due to the difference in pressure between the upper and lower surfaces, similar to an airplane wing. The design, shape, and angle of the kite, known as the angle of attack, influence how effectively it can harness the wind. Additionally, drag forces act against the kite's motion, and a well-designed kite balances lift and drag to maintain stable flight.
What is an alisphenoid?
An alisphenoid is a wing-like cartilaginous bone within a mammal's skull forming part of the socket of the eye.
What forces act on an airplane's wing?
There are four. Lift, drag, gravity and thrust. Let's break it down. Thrust comes from the engines. Either the drives are attached to the wing or to the body of the craft and thus to the wing. Thrust moves the aircraft (and its wing) forward. Drag is the aerodynamic resistance of the wing. The air cannot flow perfectly around the foil, so drag is created along the top and bottom surfaces. There is a good supply of drag on the leading edge of the wing, too. Gravity pulls the wing down (along with the rest of the craft). Lift is last. It has two components. One is kite effect. We know how a kite works. Air pushing against the "slanted" bottom of the kite pushes it up and back. The string limits back movement, so up it goes. (The "up" angle is called the angle of attack, by the way.) The engines force the plane forward into the air, and the air pressure on the underside of the wing forces it up like with a kite. Obviously if the wing is tipped down, there will be kite effect in the down direction (negative angle of attack). The second component of lift is Bernoulli's principle. Owing to the shape of the wing, air flowing over the top moves more quickly than air along the bottom, and Bernoulli said that moving fluids have less pressure than stationary (or slower moving) fluids. Lower air pressure on top of the wing translates into lift.
What lifts a kite into the air?
Its shape, its weight and the speed of the wind; same principle as the wings of an aeroplane, when the air under the wing travels faster than the air over the wing, than the latter pushes the wing up creating "lift"; the opposite of life is downforce, commonly used on race cars.
Kite lines you have a power kite 16 foot span leading lines approx 2mm thick brake line 1.5 mm what breaking strain would they be?
It is hard to answer from the information given, different brands of line will be thicker for the same breaking strain. Dyneena line is commonly use for sports and power kites. I can't even give you a suggested reccomendation as the wing span of the kite is not the only variable. For example Foil kite and arch kites of this wing span would generate diffeent lift depending on their aspect ratio. In addition I would strongly recommend you do not fly this kite without seeking some advice. Traction kites can generate very large amounts of pull and are dangerous to yourself and others if flown innappropriatly.
