Resource summary

Question 1

Question
How are birds able to fly? Is it because of...
Answer
  • Their hollow bones, and the shape of their wings, and the way they flap their wings to generate thrust
  • The way that they generate thrust
  • The way they can glide in the air

Question 2

Question
How would you describe the similarities between a bird and a plane? Or, what is the major similarity that the two have? Please give a detailed answer...=D
Answer
  • They both have tails
  • They both have wings
  • They both use lift, and have the same shaped wings

Question 3

Question
What is the greatest difference between a plane and a bird?
Answer
  • One is an animal and one is a machine
  • One is bigger than the other
  • Birds have feathers, and planes don't
  • Planes are powered by a propeller or a jet engine, whereas birds create their own thrust by flapping

Question 4

Question
How are helicopters aerodynamic?
Answer
  • The shape of the body is aerodynamic
  • The shape of the body is aerodynamic, and the blades slice through the air, and how the air hits the airfoil
  • The way the air hits the airfoil

Question 5

Question
Birds have microscopic magnets in their beaks, which allows them to know where they are going while flying. So, it's like birds that migrate have a little compass on/in their beaks. True or false?
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 6

Question
A bird needs feathers to fly because the feathers provide a strong enough surface to catch the wind. Birds also need feathers to keep themselves warm, and protect them from the rain.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 7

Question
Who made the first hot air balloon?
Answer
  • Gean Francois de Roziér
  • The brothers Joseph-Michel and Jacques-Étienne Montgolfier
  • Vijaypat Singhania

Question 8

Question
Would you be so kind as to tell me what all the parts of a PROPELLER plane are! =D

Question 9

Question
Does thrust push or pull?
Answer
  • Push
  • Pull

Question 10

Question
Does drag push or pull?
Answer
  • Push
  • Pull

Question 11

Question
Does lift push or pull?
Answer
  • Push
  • Pull

Question 12

Question
Does weight push or pull?
Answer
  • Push
  • Pull

Question 13

Question
Why do birds flap their wings?
Answer
  • To generate thrust?
  • To generate lift?
  • To generate lift, with thrust? So both Lift and thrust

Question 14

Question
What scenario(s) is drag helpful/crucial in? Please choose a detailed description, so be specific on what you mean! =D
Answer
  • When you are landing a plane, and slowing down in sports (Luge, Bobsleigh, Skeleton, Skiing, etc).
  • When you're running
  • In sports and when flying a plane

Question 15

Question
What part of the plane controls roll?
Answer
  • The rudder

Question
What two movements make bake?
Answer
  • Roll and pitch
  • Roll and yaw
  • Yaw and pitch

Question 18

Question
What part of the plane controls yaw?
Answer
  • The rudder
  • The aileron
  • The elevator
  • The flaps

Question 19

Question
Where are the flaps located on the plane
Answer
  • The control surface on the end of the wings
  • The control surface closest to the fuselage, on the wing
  • The control surface on the vertical stabilizer

Question 20

Question
Where is the rudder located on the plane?
Answer
  • The control surface on the vertical stabilizer
