Yes, there is friction acting on the airplane nose as it moves through the air. This friction is known as aerodynamic drag, which is caused by the resistance of the air against the motion of the airplane. Aircraft designers work to minimize this drag to improve fuel efficiency and performance.

What action force is touching your finger to your nose?

The action force is the force applied by your finger on your nose. This force is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the reaction force, which is the force exerted by your nose on your finger.


When you are in an aeroplane does lift act in the opposite direction to friction?

Lift does not act opposite to friction. Lift opposes weight and friction(air resistance) opposes thrust from the engine. This is all equally true whether or not you happen to be aboard the aircraft.


What will happen to the temperature of the rockets nose cone as it moves through the air?

it gets hotter the faster it goes the hotter it will get (this involves friction) or another way of saying it is: The temperature will change due to friction, the faster it goes the hotter it gets (friction is present)


Why the tires of an aeroplane are made of a conducting rubber?

The tires of an airplane are made of conducting rubber to help dissipate static electricity that can build up during flight, particularly during takeoff and landing. This helps prevent sparks that could potentially ignite fuel vapors. Conductive rubber tires also help to provide better traction and reduce wear and tear on the runway surface.


What is the force that opposes the motion of objects in air?

It is air friction. An aeroplane flying into a headwind will use up much more fuel than an aeroplane flying with a tailwind. Air friction means that a feather would take much longer to reach the ground than a lead weight dropped from the same height. Yet, if the feather and the lead weight were to be dropped in a vacuum (not subjected to air resistance) they would both reach the ground at the same time.

What are the ways in which friction is reduce on aeroplane?

by giving it better aerodynamics you can reduce friction. but also the faster it goes the more friction it gets.

Ofcourse it is.


What forces act on aeroplane when taking off?

The weight of the aeroplane and its cargo, friction where the plane's wheels meet the runway, the lift provided by the motion of the air around the aerofoil shape of the wings, aerodynamic drag,


How does the aeroplane reduces it speed while on air?

The plane is slowed by retarding the throttles, raising the nose, or deploying the speedbrakes.


Why it is dangerous to touch the knob of aeroplane during flight?

When the aeroplane is in flight, the friction between the moving plane and the surrounding molecules causes a build up of a charge on the plane. This electrostatic force can have the same effect as a current in a wire.
