well you see the effects may vary greatly depending upon factors such as wind speed, wind direction, altitude, humidity etc ,etc. some factors have small but significant effects such as causing the air that is passing over the tops of the wings to become more dense therefore generating more drag this in turn would create a fairly substantial decrease in air speed if the nose was turned down. however this is only one given situation with simple variables there are also other conditions that are beyond my ability to describe here :). so to fully answer your question my inquisitive friend, the planes air speed due to dropping the nose slightly can vary greatly due to a huge range of variables and circumstances. i hope this works for you :) good luck with any further querys.

What happens to a plane's air speed when the nose drops slightly?

When the nose drops slightly, the plane's air speed typically increases because the change in pitch causes the aircraft to descend slightly. As the aircraft descends, it gains potential energy which is converted to kinetic energy, leading to an increase in air speed. Pilots use this technique to accelerate or descend quickly if needed.

What happens to the planes air speed when the throttle is wide open?

When you first push the throttle, or throttles if you have a multiengine airplane, to the stop the plane will accelerate to its maximum speed. Once it reaches it, the plane will just keep going very fast.
