    speed also affect the amount of drag on an aircraft. These are the factors of aerodynamics. Wings aerodynamics is shown by it’s lift to drag ratio. The lift will make at a given speed an angle and can be one to two orders of magnitude greater than the total drag on the wing. High lift to drag ratio needs a smaller thrust to push the wings through the air at with a sufficient lift. The materials used to configure the paper planes is crucial in the flightpath and aerodynamics of the plane. Thicker materials

    itself after it is disturbed. Center of Lift: The point where all the lifting force is concentrated. Center of Gravity: The “balancing point” of an airplane. At this point there is just as much mass in front of it as there is behind it. If you put your finger here‚ the plane will balance on it. When you put paperclips on the back of the airplane‚ the center of gravity moved farther back. This extra weight pulls the back of the plane down‚ while the center of lift pulls the front up. The airplane is

    an overall good angle. The reason why it’s important not to add too much dihedral is because with too much dihedral comes with an increase of drag. We know that increasing the angle of attack increases the drag coefficient exponentially while the lift coefficient increases linearly with a greater angle of attack. Making the plain have a dihedral of 8 degrees increases the angle of attack and therefore increases the resultant force because there is a higher amount of decreased pressure on the top

    development of aerodynamics. It allowed for people to understand the relationship between pressure and velocity and continue further‚ building on top of that. Of course the theory ignores frictional forces an gravity‚ but it explains the concept of lift which is essential to aerodynamics. Also‚ Bernoulli’s discovery of this in the 1700’s was mind-blowing and allowed for a great jump in the studies of aerodynamics overall. Homework Introduction to Aerodynamics Name: Natalie Hume 1.

    -- up is all that matters. If you are going to provide the upward force with a wing‚ then the wing has to be in motion in order to create lift. Wings create lift by deflecting air downward and benefiting from the equal and opposite reaction that results (see How Airplanes Work for details -- the article contains a complete explanation of how wings produce lift). A rotary motion is the easiest way to keep a wing continuously moving. You can mount two or more

    aircraft that uses rotating blades (wings of a airplane‚ and a helicopter must be curved from the front and gradually smooth out at the back to generate lift. This shape is called an airfoil ) to acquire lift .Unlike an airplane that is dependent on speed‚ an airplane must fly in a certain speed to move enough air over its wings to provide lift. A helicopter’s rotor also allows it to move forward ‚backward‚ upward downward‚ sideways and hover without moving. Beyond doubt the rotor blades of a helicopter

For better lift‚ the wing structure should be better. 6.3.2 Structural Design The large Wingspan means aero elasticity influences on aerodynamics and especially on dynamic stability and control. In order to minimize such interferences and movements in the solar array‚ the wing should have
