AFOQT aviation knowledge Exam 2024 Questions and Answers

AFOQT aviation knowledge Exam 2024 Questions and Answers Airfoil - CORRECT ️️ Any surface designed to obtain a desired reaction force (I.E., lift) when in motion relative to the surrounding air. Ex. Airplanewing, propeller blade. Camber - CORRECT ️️ The curvature of the airfoil (e.g., the wing) from the leading edge to the trailing edge. The curve on top of the airfoil is called the upper camber while the curve on the bottom is called the lower camber. Chord Line - CORRECT ️️ An imaginary straight line drawn from the leading edge to the trailing edge of a cross section of an airfoil. Leading Edge - CORRECT ️️ The edge of the airfoil that faces forward in flight and is normally rounded. Trailing Edge - CORRECT ️️ The back edge of the airfoil that passes through the air last and is normally narrow and tapered. Angle of Attack - CORRECT ️️ The angle between the chord line of the wing and relative wind(which is parrallel to the flight path). The angle of attack is always based on the flight path, not the ground. Angle of Incidence - CORRECT ️️ The angle formed by the chord line of the wing and longitudinal axis of the airplane. It is the angle at which the wing is
