Force
Friction
A push or pull
Force
A cylindrical projectile that can be propelled to a great height or distance by force.
Rocket
The forces that affect flight
Lift, Weight, Thrust, and Drag
How to calculate force
F=ma
Gravity
A downward pulling force
A net force of 0N
Balanced force
A downward pulling force
Gravity
When air flows faster over the top of the wing than below it.
Lift
Measured in Newtons (N)
Force
2 objects attracted at the poles
Magnetism
Every action has an equal and opposite reaction
Newton's 3rd Law
The friction of wind on a moving aircraft
Wind resistance
The opposite motion of thrust; the friction of air as it passes over the aircraft
Drag
F/A
Formula to find Mass (M)
A force exerted by an object on a surface it makes contact with
Action/Reaction
The combination of all the forces that act on an object
Net force
a forward pulling force
Thrust
The 3 axes of flight
Longitudinal (Roll), Lateral (Tilt or Pitch), and Vertical (Yaw)
773N
Density and Less fluid displacement
Increases buoyancy
An object will move at a constant velocity until a net force acts on it
Newton's 1st Law
The path followed by a projectile flying or moving under the act of given forces.
Trajectory
Ailerons, Rudders, and Elevators
Net force greater than 0N
Unbalanced force
