1.
A flight condition where the airplane increases altitude (or height). This motion is due to imbalanced forces acting on the airplane. The lift is greater than the weight of the airplane.
a)
Force
b)
Structure
c)
Climb
2.
A limitation or a restriction. Constraints might include limits on time, materials, or size.
a)
Drag
b)
Constraint
c)
limitation
3.
A flight condition where the airplane maintains a constant speed and altitude. The forces acting on the airplane are balanced. The lift is equal to the weight, and the thrust is equal to the drag.
a)
Cruising
Flight
b)
Aircraft
c)
Wewight
4.
All types of vehicles that fly or move through the air.
a)
Aircraft
b)
Car
c)
Stored Energy
5.
Project Lead The Way
a)
PLTWW
b)
PLWT
c)
PLTW
6.
Drag
a)
Resistance that slows an object down in the air
b)
Not being able see
c)
Not being able to fly without an motor
7.
A force that pushes objects upward
a)
lift
b)
glide
c)
force
8.
Which forces must be increased to cause an airplane to take off?
a)
Lift, Drag, Weight, Thrust
b)
Weight, Lift, Force,
c)
Speed, Sound, Light
9.
When an aircraft is cruising, are the forces balanced or unbalanced?
a)
The maintain the same amount of pressure.
b)
Airplanes maintains a constant speed and altitude causes the forces on the airplane to become balanced.
c)
The weight and thrust must maintain the same on the back and sides of the eingine.
10.
A flight condition where the airplane decreases altitude (or height). This change is due to imbalanced forces acting on the airplane. The lift is less than the weight of the airplane.
a)
Climb
b)
Descent
c)
Design
11.
Engineer
a)
Design math problems
b)
Ask questions and solve problems
c)
The
use of technology, mathematics, and science to solve problems.
12.
Horizontal Stabilizer
a)
Cruising Plane
b)
A
surface on an aircraft that stabilizes the up and down motion of the nose.
c)
Climb in a level motion
13.
Take Off
a)
Speed
b)
The
part of the flight when an aircraft gains speed and becomes airborne.
c)
Cruising Flight
14.
In terms of the four forces acting on an airplane, what needs to happen so the forces are balanced? What do we call it when all four forces are balanced on an airplane?
a)
All 4 sides must be balanced
b)
For the four forces to be balanced, thrust must be equal to drag and lift must equal weight. When this happens, we say the airplane is cruising.
c)
The aircraft must have equal forces.
15.
Define force.
a)
Force is a push or pull in a specific direction.
b)
Force is equal sides
c)
Force makes the aircraft increase during cruising.
16.
What are the four forces acting on an airplane
a)
Balanced, unbalanced, lift, drag
b)
The four forces acting on an airplane are lift, weight, drag, and thrust
c)
Cruising, Weight, Drag, Thrust
Reset
