$200

Solution

This is what is pushing the plane forwards

because the jet engine pushes the air backwards

with an equal force.

$200

Title

What is air?

$400

Solution

Is the reason why air is pushing upwards on the wing of the plane, due to

its camber.

$400

Title

Why does the air seek after the lower pressure

above the wing of the plane? (Bernoulli's

Principle)

Daily Double

$600

Solution

Is the direction of the wings which force air

particles down resulting in an equal and opposite

push upwards on the wing from the air.

$600

Title

What is angle of attack?

$800

Solution

Lift is increased as a result of the flaps going

down. This happens because of this reason.

$800

Title

What is the angle of attack is increased?

Solution

$1000

Is the point at which the hot air balloon will rise.

$1000

Title

When the amount of air that is dispersed weighs more than the entire hot

air balloon?

$200

Solution

Is the direction the plane would go if

gravity pulled stronger than lift.

$200

Title

What is down?

$400

Solution

Is the direction the plane would go if gravity was equal to that of lift and thrust was greater than

drag.

$400

Title

What is forward?

$600

Solution

Is the direction the plane would go if gravity was

less than the force of lift and thrust was greater

than drag.

$600

Title

What is forwards and upwards?

$800

Solution

Is the direction the plane would go if gravity was greater than the force of lift and thrust was less

than drag.

$800

Title

What is backwards and downwards?

Solution

$1000

Is the direction the plane would go if gravity was equal to that of lift and thrust was equal to the

force of drag.

Title

What is nowhere?

$1000

$200

Solution

This is used to provide thrust for the airplane.

$200

Title

What is a propeller or jet engine?

$400

Solution

This is used to hold the plane together, it is also used to hold cargo and

passengers.

$400

Title

What is the fuselage?

$600

Solution

This is used to control the pitch of the airplane.

$600

Title

What is the elevator?

$800

Solution

This is used to control the yaw movement of

the airplane.

$800

Title

What is the rudder?

Solution

$1000

This is used to provide extra lift for the airplane when it is coming in for

a landing.

Title

What are the flaps?

$1000

Daily Double

$200

Solution

A flying squirrel is an example of this.

$200

Title

What is a glider?

$400

Solution

This is mixed with the air that is compressed in a jet

engine.

$400

Title

What is fuel?

$600

Solution

This has been done to the shape of a glider to reduce

the amount of drag that occurs.

$600

Title

What is streamlined?

$800

Solution

The movement of yaw occurs along this axis.

$800

Title

What the vertical axis?

Solution

The movement of roll occurs along this axis.

$1000

Title

What is the longitudinal axis?

$1000

$200

Solution

The connecting lines on a parachute.

$200

Title

What are shroud lines?

$400

Solution

Section of the wing which can move up or down and control roll.

$400

Title

What are ailerons?

$600

Solution

The ability of an object to float or rise when placed

in a fluid.

$600

Title

What is buoyancy?

$800

Solution

Small surfaces that can be moved to alter airflow

and change an airplanes attitude.

$800

Title

What are control surfaces?

Solution

An object designed to obtain maximum lift

when moving through the air.
