Hyperboloid - ANSWER-Monocoque
Which documents are always required to be onboard the aircraft?
Aircraft Flight Manual, Registration, Open maintenance, Waiver
Airworthiness, Radio station license, Onboard checklists, Weather data

Lift is a key aerodynamic force and is primarily created by which aircraft component?
Empennage
Wings
,Fuselage - ANSWER-Wings
Which is Newton's third law of motion?
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Every object persists in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless it is
compelled to change that state by forces impressed on it.
Force is equal to the change in momentum per change in time. For a constant mass,
force equals mass times acceleration. - ANSWER-For every action, there is an equal
and opposite reaction.
Which statement relates to Bernoulli's principle? *
An additional upward force is generated as the lower surface of the wing deflects air
downward.
Air traveling faster over the curved upper surface of an airfoil causes lower pressure
on the top surface.
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. - ANSWER-Air traveling
faster over the curved upper surface of an airfoil causes lower pressure on the top
surface.
The camber of an airfoil is generally defined as the curvature of the upper and/or
lower wing surfaces.
True
False - ANSWER-True
