How does aircraft drag increase with speed?
Drag increases by the square of velocity increase, for example, tripling speed increases drag by a factor of nine!
Will speeding up decrease the drag force on an airplane?
In general (special exceptions may apply) increase speed = increase drag.
Why drag increases as lift increase - for helis?
The production of lift creates induced drag. To create more lift, more airspeed is needed, and with airspeed, comes drag.
What is the device in an aircraft wing to reduce lift and decrease speed?
Airplanes use a combination of slats and flaps in order to increase lift and increase drag. The slats are located on the leading edge of the wing and the flaps on the trailing edge. Flaps and slats when extended forward and aft increase the wing area which increases lift. When the flaps and slats are further extended they curve downwards increasing the camber of the wing which also increases lift. The greater the lift, the greater the drag. Deploy the flaps a little and lift overcomes the drag, fully extend them and the drag overcomes the lift. For takeoff the flaps and slats may be extended just a few degrees to increase lift. When flaps and slats are fully deployed in landing configuration, the lift is great but so is the drag and this in turn helps to slow down the airplane on decent to land.
How does drag affect lift?
it makes the lift increase a lot but is slow the plane down a lot as well that is why the pilots like me use is when we are landing a plane.
How can a wind surfer increase his or her drag?
Body Drag is when a sailor steps off the Windsurfer and is dragged along the water

What is a boardsailor?
A boardsailor is another term for a windsurfer.

In general (special exceptions may apply) increase speed = increase drag.
What is the best weather to go windsurfing in?
well when its windy and warm, most windsurfer do well in wind of 10 to 20 mph, above that you must be an experienced windsurfer
What are sky divers modifications to increase drag?
If by increase drag, you mean slow the descent, then generally use a larger canopy. If that's not what you mean, then I have no idea.
How are the lift and drag components of the wing affected when you lower the flaps?
lift decrease and increase drag
What are two different ways to change drag on an airplane and how would the airplane respond to that?
Flaps would increase drag increasing your speed will increase it even more
How does angle of attack affect lift and drag?
A higher angle of attack has an increase of both lift and drag.
