Airframe Volume 1: Structures Chpt. 1

Front 1

Lift produced by a body displacing a greater weight of air than its own weight is called _________ lift.

Back 1

Aerostatic

Hint 1

think.. not moving.

Front 2

Lift produced by the reaction caused when a mass of air is deflected downward is called __________ lift.

Back 2

Aerodynamic

Front 3

The lowest layer of our atmosphere is called the ________________.

Back 3

Troposphere

Hint 3

space is like the antarctic, so the atmosphere closest to us would be like..

Front 4

The layer of our atmosphere that is typified by the temperature of the air remaining constant as the pressure continues to drop is called the _________.

Back 4

Stratosphere

Front 5

The type of altitude measurement used to determine the amount of lift produced by an airfoil or the performance of an aircraft engine is ______________ altitude.

Back 5

Density

Hint 5

you aren't 'dense'

Front 6

The principle of physics that states that if the total energy in the air moving over an airfoil remains constant, any increase in its velocity will result in a corresponding decrease in its pressure, is called _________ principle.

Back 6

Bernoule's

Front 7

The three axes about which an aircraft can rotate are:
____________
____________
____________

Back 7

Longitude, Lateral, and Vertical

Front 8

The four basic forces that act on an aircraft in flight are:

Back 8

Drag, Gravity, Thrust, and Lift

Front 9

If the propeller shaft is above the center of gravity of an airplane, addition of power will cause the nose to pitch _____ (upward or downward)

Back 9

downward

Front 10

The total lift required by an airplane in a turn must be increased to compensate for the added _________ force caused by the turn.

Back 10

Centrifugal

Hint 10

Center* your attention on the force.

Front 11

If the propeller shaft is above the center of gravity of an airplane, addition of power will cause the nose to pitch _____ (upward or downward)

Back 11

downward
