Question 1

Pressure vs. Temperature

Answer 1

Changes in pressure do not effect performance near as much as variations of standard temperatures do

Question 2

Standard Temperature

Answer 2

15C

Question 3

Standard Lapse Rate

Answer 3

2C per 1000’

Question 4

Temperature effects on air

Answer 4

Temperature increases air becomes less dense, higher pressure, decreasing performance, and decreasing speed.
Temperature decreases air becomes more dense, lower pressure, increasing performance, and increasing speed.

Question 5

Temperature above 15C

Answer 5

Increases density altitude

Question 6

Aircraft performance at higher altitude

Answer 6

Aircraft performs worse at higher altitude solely because of the decrease in density of air due to the less air at higher altitudes

Question 7

Aircrafts parts affected by density of air

Answer 7

Carburetor, Cooling, propeller, and wing are affected by density of air

Question 8

Propeller effects of decreased density

Answer 8

Less air means less thrust or pull due to less air to grab onto

Question 9

Warm Air Mass

Answer 9

Rotates Counter-Clockwise, Less dense, Slower, Lifts, Higher pressure

Question 10

Cold Air Mass

Answer 10

Denser, Less pressure, Rotate Clockwise, Faster, and Falls
