How do Newton's 3 laws affect flight?

Question

I know I had this question already, but I need a simpler version, like for a 6th grade paper kind of level

Answer 1

Newtons three laws are, a body will remain at rest or move with constant velocity unless acted on by an outside force. A body's acceleration obeys the equation Force = Mass x Acceleration and also every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

For a start, a flying object obeys the first laws in that it when flying at constant velocity, the resultant force on the body is zero, ie there is thrust which cancels the drag and lift cancels the force of gravity.

When a flying object is accelerating, there is a resultant force on the object (eg if lift exceeds gravity, the object will accelerate up).

Thrust for an aircraft is always obtained by pushing a gas backward which propells the aircraft forward. A jet engine produces hot exhaust gas which is pushed backward. A propeller driven aircraft pushed the air backwards with the propeller. This demonstrates the third law.

Answer 2

3 Laws Of Flight

Answer 3

i'm going to attempt to respond to that's easy as achievable without getting into superior aero or fluid dynamics. Newtons third regulation States: "for each action, there is an equivalent and opposite reaction" This maximum commonly is noted in aviation regarding the air superb the backside of a wing whilst that's shifting during the air. An plane desires that's wings to create raise to fly and bounce during the air. regardless of the certainty that air superb the backside of the wing isn't the only ingredient that creates raise, that's between the main well-known way's Newton's third pertains to aviation. The action is air superb the backside of the wing whilst an plane is in a "nostril-extreme" or mountain climbing concepts-set. The reaction is the wing being compelled upward. that's the consequent tension. think of of it this way. you recognize once you're utilising down the line and you stick your hand out the window? properly, you would be conscious that, based on the type you place your hand, the air flowing around your hand will tension your hand/arm upward. that's exactly the way it could result and plane's wing. be at liberty to e mail me with the different questions.

Answer 4

Lift = Weight, Drag=thrust

Answer 5

Got your answer! A fantastic explanation of 1st law is with graphics is: http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/K-12/airplane/newton1.html

Continue to the bottom of the page, click next and it's equally great explation and graphics for 2nd Law. Continue for third.

Prior to finding this one I found the following, but not as good. Good Luck on the paper.
The simplist explanation and Graphics I've found for all 3 are at: http://www.pilotsweb.com/principle/newtlaw.htm
Principles of flight is found at with lots of explanations is: http://www.pilotsweb.com/principle.htm

This site is very simplistic in explanations, examples and illustration. http://www.jracademy.com/~mbasteaf/newton/third/main.html

This one was written especially for me, the dummies physics,

Considering you're trying to reach 6th graders visuals are great. The desk top swing set with the hanging steel balls is very graphic inclusive of energy transfer which I believe can demonstrate all three laws.

Answer 6

the plane needs lift to get up, thrust to get forwards but also needs the opposite and equal reactionsa such as drag and gravity for every action thers an equal and opposite reaction an object that is moving will keep moving until an outside force stops it a.k.a drag and gravity

Answer 7

Basically, they get you up, bring you down, and keep you from turning on a dime. Forget physics, though. Airplanes fly because of financial laws; helicopters, more so.

Hey you slacker do your own homework. Maybe you will learn something..
