Q

It is the tendency of jet of fluid (gas/liquid) to curve towards a surface

A

Coanda effect

20
Q

Is defined to be the force which moves an aircraft through the air

21
Q

The impact of the air against the surface of the airplane applies force

22
Q

Types of drag

A

Parasite drag induced drag

23
Q

All drag that is not associated with the production lift

A

Parasite drag

24
Q

A drag which result from lift generation also known as vortex drag

25
It is the drag which results to tha sums both parasitic and induced drag
Total drag
26
Types of parasite drag
Skin friction drag form or pressure drug interference drag
27
Main parts of an airplane
Powerplant landing gear wings empennage fuselage
28
Central body of an airplane
Fuselage
29
Attached to each side of the fuse lage and are the main lifting surface
Wings
30
Include the entire tail group/section and consist of fixed surface
Empennage
31
Principle support of the airplane when parked taxiing taking off or landing
Landing gear
32
Usually include both engines ang the propeller the primary function
Powerplant
33
Primary flight control system
Aileron rudder elevator
34
Control roll about the longitudinal axis
Ailerons
35
Movement of the aircraft about its vertical axis this motion called yaw
Rudder
36
Is the natural and undesirable tendency for an aircraft to yaw
Adverse Yaw
37
Control pitch about the lateral axis
Elevator

Flaps
41
The plain tabs is one of the most common types of tabs used in small single engine aircraft
Trim tabs
42
Trailing edge of the primar control surface
Balance tabs
43
Are similar to balance tabs they move in the opposite direction
Anti servo tabs
44
Only adjustable on the ground
Ground adjustable tabs
