Laws of Motion and Forces of Flight
Across
- 5. space probe launched in 1977
- 6. if a pilot adds power thrust increases and the airplane _________
- 8. is the force trying to slow the airplane down.
- 10. is the force pulling the airplane towards the center of the earth
- 11. physicist and mathematician that presented principles of motion
- 13. another name for Newton's first law of motion
- 15. when on object is acted upon by a force its resulting acceleration is this type of proportional to the force acted upon the object.
- 17. for every action, there is an equal and opposite
- 18. have a magnitude and direction
- 19. increasing this will increase drag
- 20. is the force caused by airflow around the wings, supporting the aircraft in flight
Down
- 1. create lift
- 2. is the force caused by the engine, propelling the airplane forward
- 3. a push, pull, or twist on an object resulting from the object's interaction with another object
- 4. if any of the four forces change value, the aircraft would move in the direction of this type of force
- 7. an object with stay at this until another force acts on it
- 9. when forces are balanced an object won't change this
- 12. provide thrust
- 14. a change in velocity
- 16. when on object is acted upon by a force its resulting acceleration is this type of proportional to the body's mass
