100

The property that can take up the area with air.

How can air take up space?

100

True or false: Bernoulli's principle explains how the wings of flying animals keep them in the air.

What is true?

100

it pulls the flying object down due to gravity

Weight

100

In order for birds/planes to move forwards.

What is propulsion?

100

The study of moving air

Aerodynamics ???

200

This property can prove that you can weigh air.

Air has mass ???

200

The wings of birds that are curved more on the top than bottom

What is airfoil?

200
this is the opposite force of drag.

Is it Thrust

200

The reason why vehicles rust and food expires.

What is oxidation

200

An educated guess.

Hypothesis?

300

The property causes air to be able to squeeze into smaller spaces. 

Air is compressed ?

300

This states that energy is conserved in a moving fluid (liquid or gas) 

What is Bernoulli's Principle?

300

A force that pushes up on an airplane.

What is Lift

300

This means "The process of burning"

Define Combustion.

300

The best visual example for aerodynamics. 

birds, planes, helicopters, airfoll 

400

It proves that air pressure can affect the outside and inside of our bodies.

Air is affected by altitude?

400

What does bernoulli's principle state?

This principle states that The faster the flow of air, the lower the pressure and the slower the flow of air, there is more pressure.

400

If lift becomes greater than weight, the plane ______.

Does it ascend ?

400

What is the pushing of air against an object?

Air resistance.

400

in other words it means air.

Another word for Atmosphere?

500

If this property is unbalanced, it can either: cause the object to collapse or shatter.

Can air exert pressure ?

500

Bonus: This person made Bernoulli's principle. 

Who is Daniel Bernoulli?

500

This force requires friction which causes it to slow down

What causes Drag?

500

There needs to be a balance between these in order to hover.

The forces of flight (drag, thrust, lift, weight/gravity)?

500

A factor that can be changed o measured. 

What is a variable
