|
3 types of motion |
-Acceleration: rate of change of speed and or velocity of matter with time -Speed: rate of movement in terms of distance measured in an allotted amount of time -Velocity: the quickness or speed of an object in a given time and direction |
|
|
Newton first law |
An object at rest will stay at rest, or an object in motion will continue in motion at the same speed and in the same direction, until after upon by an outside force. |
|
|
Newton second law |
If an object moving with uniform speed is acted upon by an external force, the change of motion, or acceleration, will be directly proportional to the amount of force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object being moved. |
|
|
Newton third law |
Every action there is an equal and opposite reation |
|
|
Bernoullis principle |
When a fluid flowing through a tube reaches a construction or narrowing of the tube, the speed of the fluid passing through the construction is increased and it's pressure decreased. The general lift of an airfoil is dependent upon the airfoils ability to create circulation in the air stream and develope the lifting pressure over the airfoil surface. Lift is accomplished by the difference in airgolw across the airfoil |
|
|
Lift |
The force that acts, in an upward direction, to support the aircraft in the air. It counteracts the effects of weight. Lift must be greater than or equal to weight if flight is to be sustained. |
|
|
Weight |
Force of gravity acting downward on the aircraft and everything on the aircraft. |
|
|
Thrust |
Force developed by the aircrafts engine, and it acts in the forward direction. Thrust must be greater than or equal to the effects of drag in order for flight to begin or be sustained |
|
|
Vertical axis |
Imaginary line running from the top to the bottom of the aircraft |
|
|
Fixed wing aircraft movement |
-Ailerons (roll): longitudinal axis -Elevators (pitch): lateral -Rudder (yaw): vertical |
|
|
Rotary wing movement |
-Cyclic stick (roll/pitch): tilts the plane (angle) of the rotor blades toward, aft or sideways, giving the helicopter it's directional motion by changing the direction of the lift; from vertical to a varying degree based on a 0 degree centerline. -Tail rotor (yaw): counteracts torque of the main rotor by increasing or decreasing the amount of horizontal thrust the tail rotor produces, this movement is around the vertical axis. |
|
|
Angle of attack |
Angle at which the airfoil or fuselage meets a flow of air. Defined as the angle between the chord line of the wing and the relative wind. The relative wind is the direction of the air stream in relation to the wing. Angle of attack is measured in units as opposed to degrees |
|
|
What is autorotation? |
Method of allowing a helo to land safely from altitude without using engine power. As a helo is descending in altitude the collective is lowered allowing the reverse airflow through the rotor to maintain RPM. When the helo reaches a predetermined altitude the collective pitch is increased to covert inertial energy into lift to reduce the rate of descent and cushion the landing |
|
|
Basic aircraft hydraulic systems? |
-Reservoir to hold a supply of hyd fluid -Pump to provide a flow of fluids -tubing to transmit the fluid -Selective valve to direct the flow of fluids -Actuating unit to convert the fluid pressure into useful work |
|
|
Main components of landing gear? |
-Shock strut: absorb the shock -Tires -Wheel brake assembly -Retracting and extending mevhanism: All the hardware to electrically or hydraulically extend and retract the landing gear -Side struts and supports: lateral strength/support for the landing gear |
