Aerodynamics 2 Flashcards
If the CG is loaded rear, plane is unstable about its
Lateral Axis
At given weight and configuration, a plane at hight altitude will take of ______ IAS and TAS/GA will be _______
same
greater
The Sum of all upward components of the forces ______ to sum of all _______ components of forces
The Sum of all upward components of the forces equals to sum of all downward components of forces
Standard rate of turn. 360will take
2minutes
Turn Coordinator indicates:
roll rate, rate of turn, and coordination
Trun and slip indicator
rate of turn and coordination
purpose of spoilers
decrease the lift of wing
Which maximum range factor decrease as weight decrease?
Airspeed
Wing Spoilers’ affect on wheel breaks?
Makes them more effective
IAS and CAS are approximately same at
cruise and high airspeeds
IAS error is greater at ______ speeds
lower
At high angles of attack, the amount of induced drag is _____; since
this corresponds to lower airspeeds in actual flight, it can be said that induced drag predominates at _______speed.
high
Low
the reduction of the wingtip vortices due to ground effect alters the spanwise lift distribution and _______ the
induced AOA and induced drag.
reduces
What is the connection between ground affect and static source? How does it affect the airborne speed.
ground effect
causes an increase in the local pressure at the static source and produces a lower indication of airspeed and altitude.
Thus, an aircraft may be airborne at an indicated airspeed less than that normally required.
To maintain the same amount of lift in ground effect
the wing will require a lower AOA in ground effect to produce the same
CL
A propeller rotating clockw;se as seen from the rear, creates a spiraling slipstream which, along
with torque, tends to rotate the airplane to the
Left around the vertical axis and right around longtitunal axis
