Lift occurs in an aircraft wing because the wind speeds up as it goes over the top of it. The wind is traveling at relatively the same speed over the bottom. The faster air that travels over the top causes the wing to have lift because the air pressure is lower over the top therefore the wing 'rises' in a way. Hope this helps :)
What else can I help you with?
Is pressure a contact force?
Yes, pressure is a contact force that occurs when an object comes into contact with a surface. It is the force applied perpendicular to the surface per unit area.
What is the pressure in a vacuum?
There is no pressure in a vacuum, a vacuum is the absence of anything, there is nothing there to push. Air from a pressurized space that becomes open to a vacuum may push you into the vacuum, but the vacuum itself does nothing as it is literally nothing.
Is there a greater or lesser air pressure on top of the wing when lift occurs?
There is lesser air pressure on top of the wing when lift occurs. This is due to the shape of the wing causing the air to move faster over the top surface, resulting in lower air pressure according to Bernoulli's principle.
What is Cold water forced to th the surface by pressure?
Cold water forced to the surface by pressure is known as upwelling. Upwelling occurs when winds push surface water away from a coastline, causing deeper, colder water to rise and take its place. This process brings nutrients from the ocean floor to the surface, supporting the growth of phytoplankton and other marine life.
Why you feel pressure from water?
Pressure from water occurs because water is a dense fluid. As you go deeper into water, the weight of the water above you increases, creating higher pressure. This pressure is felt on your body from all directions and can be significant at greater depths.
A reduction of vapor pressure occurs with the addition of a nonvolatile solute to a solvent because?
There are fewer solvent molecules at the surface that can evaporate.
Is pressure a contact force?
Yes, pressure is a contact force that occurs when an object comes into contact with a surface. It is the force applied perpendicular to the surface per unit area.
Why is it that the larger the surface area the higher the evaporation?
That's because evaporation occurs at the surface.
What occurs because of unequal heating of the Earth's surface?
wind
What occurs because of unequal heating of earths surface?

What occurs because of unequal heating of Earth's surface?

What gases are found in the atmosphere what gases are found in the troposphere?
About 90% of the atmospheric mass is in the troposphere. You can tell because 90% of the pressure increase occurs in the troposphere. Pressure goes from zero in space to 100 mb at the tropopause to 1000 mb at the surface.
Which of the following occurs because of unequal heating of the Earth's surface?
The answer is the Winds
Which type of weathering occurs due to release of pressure?
The type of weathering that occurs due to the release of pressure is called exfoliation weathering. This process involves the outer layers of rocks peeling away in sheets due to the reduction of pressure on the rock surface.
What layers of small sediments stick together because when pressure occurs?
When layers of small sediments stick together because of pressure, compaction occurs. :)
Which occurs because of unequal heating of the Earth's surface?
Air current, winds.
What is the pressure in a vacuum?
There is no pressure in a vacuum, a vacuum is the absence of anything, there is nothing there to push. Air from a pressurized space that becomes open to a vacuum may push you into the vacuum, but the vacuum itself does nothing as it is literally nothing.
