Gliders

The balance point of a plane due to weight.

• Static Margin

• Neutral Point

• Center of Gravity

The main body of a plane.

• Fuselage

• Wing

• Cockpit

If a plane travels too slow to produce lift, the plane is in

• Flight

• Turbulence

• Stall

Four forces on a plane in flight are: lift, weight, thrust, and

• Roll

• Drag

• Yaw

The phenomenon of lift is explained by

• Newton's 2^nd Law

• Bernoulli's Principle

• Archimedes Principle

Yaw stability is greatly impacted by the

• Vertical Stabilizer

• Horizontal Stabilizer

• Front Ballast

The balance point of a plane due to lift.

• Center of Gravity

• Static Margin

• Neutral Point

Roll stability is most impacted by the

• Angle of the wings

• Static Margin

• Horizontal Stabilizer

To create lift, the air moving over the top of the wing must move ___________________ than the air below the wing.

• Slower

• Equal

• Faster

The glider has no engine, therefore it can produce no ________.

• Lift

• Thrust

• Velocity
