False
What type of stress is this?
Shear
Pressure
what type of stress is this?
Shear
Pressure
The orange area represents?
High Pressure
Low Pressure
The blue area represents?
Low Pressure
High Pressure
Does the high pressure below the airfoil or the suction generated by the low pressure above the airfoil generate more lift?
The high pressure below the airfoil.
The suction generated by the low pressure above the airfoil.
Without a difference in air pressure above and below the wing there can be no lift?
Ture
False
Newton's Third Law tell us?
Force is equal to mass times acceleration.
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
According to Newtons Third Law (for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction) an airfoil generates lift by turning the incoming air downwards?
Ture
False
Increasing the camber of an airfoil will increase the amount of fluid it can deflect and in result increase the lift force?
Ture
False
If the angle of attack is raised too high will it decrease lift?
Yes
No
