Stall

Question 1

Stalling is due to

Answer 1

Airflow separation - a reduction of lift and an increase in drag

Question 2

A large leading radius and thick cambered will give a much

Answer 2

Gradual stall as opposed to a thin , small leading edge radius aerosol

Question 3

When an aircraft stalls the CP moves

Answer 3

Rearwards causing the aircraft nose to drop

Question 4

Wing washout reduces

Answer 4

The angle of Incidence - reduces the AoA at the tip

Question 5

Leading edge slots at wing tips

Answer 5

Re energise the boundary layer

Question 6

Vortex generators - consist of small thin blades and

Answer 6

Produce vortices on the top of the wing surfaces - adds kinetic energy to the boundary layer - delaying separation

Question 7

Wing tip stall causes the CP

Answer 7

Centre of pressure to move forward

Question 8

When the swept wing wing tip stalls

Answer 8

The CP MOVES FORWARD AND INCREASED TAILPLANE DOWNWASH CAUSES NOSE TO RISE RAPIDLY

Question 9

By fitting Krueger flaps on the leading edge

Answer 9

The wing root can be made to stall before the tips

Question 10

Load factor =1 in

Answer 10

S&L flight

Question 11

Density altitude doesn’t affect what type of speed

Answer 11

IAS

Question 12

If weight is decreases then speed

Answer 12

Decreases

Question 13

Increase in cl max will do what to the stall speed

Answer 13

Decrease

Question 14

If CG is infront or CP

Answer 14

The nose will pitch down

Question 15

Forward movement of the CG

Answer 15

Increases stall speed
