BASIC AERODYNAMICS C

To maintain altitude during a turn, the angle of attack must be increased to compensate for the decrease in the. forces opposing the resultant component of drag. vertical component of lift.. horizontal component of lift.

If an airplane is loaded to the rear of its CG range, it will tend to be unstable about its. vertical axis. lateral axis. longitudinal axis.

To maintain altitude during a turn, the angle of attack must be increased to compensate for the decrease in the. forces opposing the resultant component of drag. vertical component of lift. horizontal component of lift.

If the airspeed is increased from 90 knots to 135 knots during a level 60° banked turn, the load factor will. increase as well as the stall speed. decrease and the stall speed will increase. remain the same but the radius of turn will increase.

While maintaining a constant angle of bank and altitude in a coordinated turn, an increase in airspeed will. decrease the rate of turn resulting in a decreased load factor. decrease the rate of turn resulting in no change inload factor. increase the rate of turn resulting in no change in load factor.

One of the main functions of flaps during the approach and landing is to. decrease the angle of descent without increasing the airspeed. provide the same amount of lift at a slower airspeed. decrease lift, thus enabling a steeper-than-normal approach to be made.
