Question 1

When a plane flies there is more air pressure here...

Accepted Answer

The bottom of the wing

Answer

the bottom of the plane

Answer

inside of the cabin in the plane

Answer

the top of the wing

Question 2

What causes the differences in air pressure when a plane flies

Accepted Answer

the shape of the wing

Answer

the speed of the plane

Answer

the shape of the body of the plane

Answer

the weight of the plane

Question 3

How does higher pressure on the bottom of the wing cause lift?

Accepted Answer

higher pressure pushes up on the bottom of the wing

Answer

the plane floats

Answer

lower pressure on the bottom of the wing pushed up the plane

Answer

the plane does not lift off due to pressure

Question 4

What does Bernoulli's Principle State?

Accepted Answer

That air molecules move around the wing at different speeds causing pressure differences

Answer

air molecules move at different speeds in general which causes things to lift

Answer

lift is generated from the weight of the plane while moving

Answer

Air molecules have pressure differences in themselves that cause lift

Question 5

What causes air pressure during flight?

Accepted Answer

The speed of air molecules around the wing shape

Answer

the weight of the plane

Answer

the speed of air-molecules floating in the air

Answer

temperature differences

Question 6

Why does air pressure around the plane not cause it to move side to side?

Accepted Answer

the plane is moving forward, thus the air molecules around move directly over top and bottom of the plane, and less are moving around the side of the plane

Answer

it does cause it to move side to side but the pilot of the plane adjusts

Answer

air molecules only move up and down

Answer

the side to side movements of air molecules don't affect the plane

Question 7

Does wing shape matter in flight? Why or Why not?

Accepted Answer

Yes, wing shape determines the speed of the air molecules, and thus the air pressure createsd

Answer

yes, the wing shape matters because this is how a plane steers

Answer

No, the plane body shape is more important for the particples to move around the entire body

Answer

No, the wing shape does not matter because air molecules move at a set speed

Question 8

What is air pressure

Accepted Answer

the force of air on objects around it

Answer

air movement

Answer

the pressure of objects on the air around it

Answer

air speed

Question 9

Can Bernoulli's principle explain how other creatures fly?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but it explains how flying animals glide in the air

Answer

no, they are only able to fly due to flapping their wings

Answer

yes, Bernoulli's principle is used to exactly explain how animals fly

Answer

no, animals can not fly
